− | + | '''Ash''' is created from a [[log|wood log]] at a [[wood furnace]] by a dwarf with the [[Wood_burner|wood burning]] [[labour]] enabled. Ash has a value of 5 and does not have quality modifiers. Ash is an intermediate good only used to make potash or [[lye]]*. | |
− | '' | ||
− | ''' | + | A single, ordinary bar of ashes is left behind when a [[fire man]] is killed. <!-- or a spirit of fire, but that's probably a bit of a spoiler--> |
+ | |||
+ | '''Potash''' is created from ash or [[lye]]* at an [[ashery]] by a dwarf with the [[potash making]] [[labour]] enabled. Potash has a value of 15 and does not have quality modifiers. Potash is used for fertilizer on [[farm plot]]s. [[Fertilize]]d [[farm plot]]s have larger yields, as measured by the larger [[stack]]s of the [[crop|plant]] when [[harvest]]ed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | :''(*Yes, you could turn ash to potash and then that potash to lye, or just turn ash directly into lye - same end result, your choice.)'' | ||
− | + | '''Pearlash''' is baked from potash at a [[kiln]] or [[magma kiln]] by a dwarf with the [[furnace Operator]] labour enabled. Pearlash has a value of 20 and has no quality modifiers. Its sole use is in the manufacture of higher-quality types of [[glass]] and glass items. | |
− | Ash | + | Ash, potash and pearlash are [[bar]]s, stored in a bar [[stockpile]] and viewable in the [[stocks]] screen under "bars". |
− | + | Ash, potash and pearlash are all [[fire-safe]] materials, and can therefore be used where that is needed or desired. | |
