Oak Gall Ink Journey Begins...
Researching Oak Gall Ink By Lady Symonne de la Croix 29.2.20 Researching how to make oak gall ink is proving to be more complex than I thought it would be. So many period recipes but which to choose. And when I choose I will have to work out what medieval weights were in relation to modern, as I have recently found out that they can be different. But where to start looking? Google hasnt been very helpful yet. Apparently a pound can be 12 ounces instead of 16. An added difficulty is being Australian,we work in metric so that adds to the equations. Well here I go down another rabbit hole.....
