Hungry Cat Wilderness - Into the Wild
Finland
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 15 ม.ค. 2021
For me, being in the nature is a lifestyle and hobby which started from childhood summers at my parents' summer cottage in the woods. Outdoor life is the most natural life I know.
I created this TH-cam channel, because I wanted to share some of my great moments in the wilderness. I hope that people who watch these videos can sense and experience at least some of nature's magic moments the way I do. Maybe these videos will give some relaxing feelings, take away the urban stress and even encourage people to explore nature by themselves.
Hopefully my videos would make people start to understand how fragile the situation of the remaining wild nature is.
I'm also making tutorial videos of some outdoor and bushcraft skills, which used to be common at earlier times, but are now forgotten.
The name of this channel - Hungry Cat Wilderness - comes from a very hungry, black creature who lives in our house.
It would be very nice to receive your comments about my videos.

Best way to process acorns and make them edible, remove tannins, leaching, food, cowboy coffee
I´m showing the best and easiest way how to process acorns, how to remove tannins and make oaknuts edible. Making food from acorns is easy. Acorn coffee is delicious and can be used pure or mixed with normal coffee.
Native Americans have used acorns for food for thousands of years. Nowadays acorns are a forgotten food source, but it should not be like that. Oaks are widely spread all over the world and oaknuts are easy to pick. They contain high amounts of nutrients and vitamins.
Before oaknuts are edible for humans, they have to be processed. Tannins, which make them inedible, have to be removed by leaching. The process is very simple and does not require much work or any special techniques.
Next time you stumble upon an oak, remember that in autumn time those trees are full of free food.
Try acorn processing yourself. Have fun with learning new skills, refresh old knowledge and make delicious food!

Näytän parhaan ja helpoimman tavan käsitellä tammenterhot syötäväksi ja miten valmistaa niistä ruokaa, jauhoja ja kahvia. Tammenterhot sisältävät suuria määriä tanniineja, jotka tekevät niistä kitkerän makuisia ja ihmisravinnoksi sellaisenaan kelpaamattomia. Tanniinien poistaminen on kuitenkin varsin helppo toimenpide.
Tammenterhoista valmistettu kahvi on herkullista ja sitä voi tehdä pelkistä tammenterhoista tai sekoitettuna normaalin kahvin kanssa. Hienoksi jauhettua tammenterhojauhoa voi sekoittaa tavallisiin jauhoihin ja valmistaa helposti leipää.
Amerikan mantereen alkuperäisväestö on käyttänyt tammenterhoja ruokana tuhansien vuosien ajan. Nykyään taito terhojen käytöstä ruoan valmistuksessa on lähes kokonaan unohtunut. Terhoja on kuitenkin helppo poimia ja ne sisältävät paljon ravintoaineita ja vitamiineja. Tammenterhot ovat käytännössä ilmaista ruokaa.
Kokeile itse tammenterhojen käyttämistä ruokana!

Thank you
This is really good Please tell me what oil do you use to water proof it?
how long did you keep it charred in fire 🔥
Thank you so much for this video
Nice rock
☺️😉👍
Nice video very well explained , thank you for sharing
You can make char from any natrual cloth, rope, fiber or plant. I have made it out of just about everything at one point or another. My favorite things to make char from are cotton or hemp rope 1/2" to 1" in diameter or rolled or braided denim. I find that having it in a stick form allows for more versatility. You can break of a smal piece or ignite the whole end like a cigar and have a large, hot ember for starting wet or damp tinder or for windy conditions. As long as you make it correctly, it readily takes the tiniest of sparks. Also, you can you any container that is mostly airtight and fireproof. I find that bigger holes or gaps in tins don't matter as long as they don't allow for excessive air flow. You can always cover it with a cloth or tin foil after you pull it out to avoid ignition if it has larger holes or gaps. I have even used aluminum foil tightly wrapped arounf the material. Also, when using a tin, if you put a layer of punk wood on the bottom and then stack your char material on top of it, you get a much better final product that is dull and fluffy and doesn't get hard and shinny as sometimes happens. Also, I like to make a big batch at a time and keep it stored in an air tight container. Then you can toss some in a tin or baggie before your trip and don't have to mess with making it every time or two.
silly. too much work
I absolutely agree the hole on the side is brilliant!! Thank you
Thank you for actually using flint and steel on your char cloth. A bunch of guys on TH-cam are making char cloth and using a ferro rod to get an ember with the char cloth. If you are using a ferro rod, there is no need for char cloth, it's just an extra step when you can go directly from your ferro rod to an open flame with good tinder or simply a PJ cotton ball.
This is a great video! Very educational! I'm attempting my first batch of acorns - small handful this time around. There blogs with written instructions that skip entire steps or are unclear. Hopefully I can salvage what I have. I have an air fryer/dehydrator that I can use for drying. Fingers crossed!
Does Acorn have caffeine or something? Why were they used for coffee substitutes?
This proceedure is "nuts".no pun intended! I leach acorns in a fraction of this time! Simply put acorn meat in blender w water...Drain off water when done..Do this several times &vtheyll be ready to go!
There are flames only because your tin is completely in a fire. I have a larger 1 qt tin and on a burner you would be hard pressed to see flames. You would need to regulate your burning just at the right strength to give a gentle stream of escaping gas, enough for you to light with a lighter. Otherwise too little escaping gas and lit flame goes out, or too much escaping gas roaring lit flame goes out immediately. I am also surprised that your tin has no liquid smoke residue crystalizing up coating the inside surface of your tins. The again you are only doing 16 pieces at a time. I do about 60 in a qt tin and smoke goes to liguid and then crystallizes completely coating the tin. I did a whole large t shirt, so it took 5 rounds at 25 minutes per. Now i have enough char cloths for a year or two. Good stuff, thanks for sharing.
For cold water, it helps to powder the acorns first. This can’t be done with hot water though, because they will stick together and not leach
What did you add in after the acorns....the brown powder?
That was coffee grounds. But it was specified later that pure acorn brew was also just as delicious. It's just a personal preference. (Obviously, as might have been the case for the confederates in the example given, if you don't HAVE coffee grounds, you can skip this step.)

😅……
. . . Old Saying . . . "Stir With A Knife And You Stir Up Strife" . . .
In the drying step , right after the water process , would it not be better to use a dehydrator on them than a stove or open air ? Just a thought , but it seems like you are used to the low tech route .
Awesome now I need to find a nice can like you used. Thanks for the info. 👍
Does it have to be the ash of the tree you mentioned or do most tree ash work?
Does the bottom pieces of cloth will not be that good charred? Because i see it might be that ?
With that small of a tiin and that great of a fire, I believe you should get pretty complete charring. I use a 1 qt tin with 60+ pieces of cloths and out of 5 burnings I only had about 3 pieces that were 75% partially charred. This was done on a propane burner. I rotated the tin all sides, even upside down and shaking the tin fairly vigorously to ensure good even contact and exposure of the contents.

Plastic spoon?
Acorn coffee sounds alot like herbal tea..blech.
well shot and edited video, my man! pleasure to watch and exactly the information i was looking to freshen up. thanks!
So moody and sexy
Ashed tinder... you dont need amadou
You do if you're trying to ignite it with flint and steel. Not a lot of natural materials will ignite with such a low temperature spark
Look into char cloth and you'll understand better what he's saying. @@Chungustav
Will this work with a ferro rod?
You can use char cloth with a ferro rod, but the way you use it will be different than how it's done in this video. You'll want to place your char cloth on a stable surface (rock, table, etc you get the idea), then position your ferro rod vertically over top of it (it can even be touching the fire cloth, or flush against your stable surface right next to it). You'll want to strike from the top of your rod (ie. the end you're holding) downwards onto the char cloth, and if you're positioned correctly the sparks should catch pretty quickly. At that point just take your char cloth, put it into your tinder, and blow on it to nurse your fire; the char cloth burns relatively slowly and stably when it's just caught sparks, so you don't need to rush.
Ferro rods throw larger showers of sparks at much hotter temperature ensuring a burn within 2 strikes, most within the first.
Exceptional instructional video. My favorite aspect is your overall concise shooting style, e.g. butcher-block setup, "unadulterated" live audio, and just enough use of text/diagram overlays. Great stuff - thank you!
What a pain in the- I mean, what an long process!
Thank you for such a calm and soothing video! (and a special thanks for the channel header photo)
im you 500 hudreth subscriber
Tubes might not be good tinder, but they do smoke once lit and are good mosqito repellent.
So is spent chaga. Smells good too.
if you crack the tubules down into thin rods they smoulder very much like an incense candle. I've integrated making these as part of the process of getting at the amadou. (edit: much in the same way the tubes are removed in the video, but then further cut into narrow square rods)
No survival without coffee 😉
Seams like a lot of prep work
It is but German tinder which is amadou was the preferred tinder back in the early 1800s because pipe smokers could keep it in their pockets without having all the black mess of charred cloth as the English
Very nice, usefull and quiet video. I like your work ;)
Squirrels actually do mind tannins. That’s why squirrels leach acorns.
No they don't lol
Really like your videos!
Hope to live in Finland over several years, I really like to see it on your videos. It’s so quit and peaceful:) Kiitos!
Do the ashes need to be from Birch? Or would any hardwood ash work?

This is a great video. Thanks for posting it here.
Olen viimeaikoina tehnyt taulaa ilman tuhkalipeässä liottamista. Olen liottanut taulan palaa tavallisessa vedessä pari päivää, ja muokannut sen sormilla venuttamalla vanuttamalla ilman vasarointia. Kuivauksen jälkeen ottaa hyvin kipinän vastaan, kun siihen hieroo tuhkaa pintaan. Hyvä video, ja hyvä vinkki tuo pinnan rikkominen. Tarviikin kokeilla sitä seuraavaksi.
Great video! Thank you!👍
