Receta: Safflower Ink
The liquid looks brownish, but the ink itself has an intense yellow. It has less body than the Imperial Yellow ink and no green tint or gloss. When exposed to light, it first loses brilliance and then fades significantly or completely after only three to four weeks.
Procesamiento
Nota
Although clove oil acts as a preservative, safflower ink does not have a long shelf life and should be used up quickly.
The production requires the following tools: a scale, mortar and pestle, an enameled pot, glass rods or wooden sticks for stirring, glasses, funnels and filters.
Water
Only demineralized water (#65000) is used in the recipes.
Color result
Since many ingredients used in ink recipes are of natural origin, the color result may vary. Deviations from the original recipe may also change the result.
Filtration
The inks are filtered with paper filters.
Cooking
Keep the cooking pot closed with a matching lid.
Shelf life
Moldy ink should not be skimmed off. Please dispose if the ink.
Cleaning
Pots are best cleaned with hot water and a small amount of citric acid (#64150).
