Seven years ago, I had the idea to extract the "white gold" from the Baltic Sea and produce high-quality sea salt without any additives. And the taste? Intense and salty, indeed a bit like Baltic Sea water that you accidentally swallow while swimming. It all starts with the ovens. They are located in a purpose-built boiling house. The Baltic Sea water is filled into two huge stainless steel vats. The vats are heated, the Baltic Sea water evaporates, and the salt content increases. At some point, the mass looks like semolina pudding. The salt is manually skimmed off with a sieve. However, the whole process is not quick: it takes six hours for 400 liters of water to evaporate. And from these 400 liters, I end up with about six kilograms of salt. Meanwhile, there are several ovens that almost daily boil Baltic Sea water into Baltic Sea salt. We are currently working on CO2-neutral production and plan to use the waste heat from a biogas plant. There is enough waste heat generated there to be able to do without any other energy sources. The Roman scholar Cassiodorus wrote 1,500 years ago: "Man can live without gold, but not without gold, but not without salt."Read their story
