First attempt at salt making

 My first attempt at salt making.  One gallon of salt water into a square 9x9 pan on a hot plate.  Let’s see what one gallon of salt water makes.  The idea is once I evaporate the liquid what remains is salt.  I do a finish dry in a dehydrator or the oven then bottle.  Please note I strained the salt water through a towel.

The pan on the hot plate is cooking down the water to sea salt.

Above is a half a gallon of salt left to cook down in the pan.
