It is most often used as a component in the amount creation of ash created. Make multiple fires for this purpose[[lye]].
== Usage ==
* Used with [[water]] to create [[lye]].
* Ash can be gathered from a [[forge]], [[oven]], [[kiln]], or [[smelter]] by activating a [[shovel]], right-clicking the recently used burning vessel, and selecting ''Clean''.
* Gathering ash from a burning vessel uses the [[firemaking]] skill.
* The fire must be snuffed before the item can be cleaned and ash collected.
== Notes ==
* Adding [[log]]s to [[campfire]]s will not increase the amount of ash created. Multiple fires are suggested for bulk ash generation.

* The [[QL]] of ash is capped by the [[QL]] of the item being cleaned.
* Lower QL ash may still be produced due to RNG.
* Ash can be [[forage]]d from [[rubble]] [[resource nodes]].
