Pomegranate Ink

[dcwaites]

 

You could try to put whole cloves or oil of clove in as a biocide next time. That's what I use and it works great.

 

I will be doing that next time. It was only after I had grown whole civilisations in my ink that I found out about cloves.

Dear friends, first of all i would like to thank fiberdrunk for this amazing class. I would like to know if i have to let the pomegrante peel to dry or i just take off the seeds and can use it right away? Is this ink waterproof? I am on a project where i am replicating an old document and replicating the restoration process using Methylcellulose and Wheat Starch Paste and i would like to try it with some kinds of inks.

 

In advance, thank you very much for your attention.

 

My best regards,

 

Lucas

No, you don't need to let the peel/rinds dry. Use them fresh, right away.

 

Yes, the ink is waterproof.

 

Good luck with your project! Let us know how it goes!
