Harvesting and Processing the Oats - The Diffner Homestead

[@evebrito3623]

My kindergartener asked me where his oatmeal came from. This is the best video I found to teach him clearly and in short time how the oats are harvested. Thank you 🙏🏽

[@elleobi]

I'm here for the exact same reason! 😊

[@georgehotelling6290]

This video was awesome!! Super clear, concise and informative!

[@richardchiolero2614]

Thank you for this video! I’ve never actually seen the process from start to finish. Good work!

[@mrsnulch]

This is awesome dude, it's so cool to see the process as a city slicker. Great video, cheers.

[@leteishaarrigo8586]

Perfection! Very well explained and shown. I love that the young kids can get in and help. What a great skill to learn and they looked like they were enjoying the process.

[@null-xf9pd]

Love the psalm flashed on there. Bless your family brother

[@KathleenGallafraigh]

I see you haven't been making videos in a while. This one was very well.done and provided exactly the information I needed. Please consider making how to videos on homesteading again.

[@annschrimsher5183]

Thank you so much for doing this video. This was extremely helpful.

[@humblerepentpraygive5815]

Wonderful family project. I hope you are all well. ❤️

[@franc362]

Great method and priceless time with the family

[@robertue1]

Thank you for sharing this video! It will make me appreciate even more my oatmeal breakfast 🤗.

[@tracytracy1030]

Very cool, I was looking for a video to show my little nephew how this was done. Thank you so much for posting this video!

[@Unknown-xi6xt]

Best video I've seen on the subject ,thank u 🙏

[@MelZ82523]

Thank you for that video! You did an awesome job!

[@mmmm5201]

This is the first time I saw oats in my life

[@Renan-n3y]

Hope you have started to eat them, they're really healhy!

[@jbelme1]

Thanks. I found some oats growing on the shoulder of the highway and want to grow them next season but couldn’t determine seed from husk. It looks like if you were to hold up three fingers and they all look like seed.

[@dougrighthand5462]

You smacked the crap out of that little girl's hand at 2:15....no you eat it...lol, poor baby

[@blbmnm5939]

found this video when trying to document myself about oats, here just to let u know that i appreciate ur upload, big thank u

[@maydavalle]

So cool Thank you for sharing🌾💗

[@elijahsanders3547]

This was very detailed, thank you :)

[@Henry-r9f3q]

Great video thanks for the info

[@kreemarie7550]

Gave exactly what I was looking for . I’d really like to see how the seed is processed.

[@CrestonHill]

Awesome video!!! Good work! I learned a lot

[@yudiantofirmansyah8818]

The video I'm looking. Thanks for the video

[@keithyoung7381]

Very neat. Great video

[@dolbyderringer2225]

Thats a whole lotta work for an morning's bowl of oatmeal😅

[@echo-channel77]

Look at it in terms of calorie cost. For a couple of hours work, you can gain enough calories to feed what appears to be at least 2 people for an entire day (or ~4,000 Calories). That leaves 14 hours a day, every day, to focus on making.... whiskey!

[@devinmichaelroberts9954]

@@echo-channel77 YOur math is off.. growing grains at home is not worth the calorie expense. THere are multiple homesteaders oin youtube who have covered the reasons. There are far better things to grow that dont take the processing and time up.

[@Unsensitive]

@@devinmichaelroberts9954 Grains are valuable due to their long shelf life, in cases of famine, but I'd probably stick to corn or sorghum vs oats for a staple grain. Otherwise potatoes and beans are better yearly staples, with squash for variety. I also grow sunchokes, as they are zero effort, spread on their own, and are pretty. In an emergency food situation, such as crop failure and coming winter, I could just go outside and dig em up. I'm also no homesteader.. so consider this amateur homestead advice.

[@WheresJesus777]

The lord brought me to your video, and I was eating oatmeal. He said.. how are oats ground. So I looked it up on KZbin in my prayer time. Then he brought me to your video. When I saw psalm 35:5 I knew the Holy Spirit brought me here. Thankyou for making this video. It’s was cool to watch.

[@rustinstardust2094]

Ok, that threshing of the oats looks like fun 🤗

[@Elijah_Dove]

Great to see this. Nice one 👍🏻

[@DaylightDisinfectant]

And then a miracle occurs snd it’s in this nice little Quaker packers

[@sdit4500]

Great video

[@sarahhowell3725]

How big was the plot and how much did it yield ?

[@gregmann7936]

Thanks this process will help me.

[@TheLyzardIAm]

So my question is this, after that last step is completed, what is the next step? It doesn't look like the oatmeal you buy in the store. Do they roll it? How is that done by hand?

[@rockylily36]

Apparently you can use a pasta maker to roll it.

[@TheNewTestament27]

Mill

[@whitneybelk4861]

You can eat the groat whole. Look for recipes. I use a slow cooker overnight recipe. 2 cups of groats and 8 cups of water. It's that simple.

[@TheLyzardIAm]

@@whitneybelk4861 lol thanks. I make them on a regular basis on the stove. I've been milling grain for about a year now and haven't looked back.

[@freddycook630]

if you do away with the electric fan, and bring in a sieve you would have less wasted and a quicker separation, but all in all 8/10

[@victorgarridosolis4385]

great video dude! just what I needed :)

[@shaunbang]

really makes you wonder who was the first person to think of grinding up a bunch of grass then making bread with it. it had to have been an accident i assume like he first made the powder for some reason then it got wet and then it got hot via the sun or something and turns into delicious bread?

[@KingTrouser]

They say people grew grains first to make beer, bread and stuff came later, probably by accident you're right.

[@gaildimick1831]

Well it’s called “work & sweat” all because of a sin sick curse world. But by Gods Grace it will change. Keep looking up.

[@bwertz7068]

Would it be easier to put bird or deer netting on top of the tarp then shake the oats and husk from the straw?

[@ellenj8896]

Great vid!

[@rodney73991]

good job man. take straw and craft dig deep tomato garden. then water tomatoes act sponge when summer draught hits. tomatoes super tall. roots hit layer of straw chaft. over time turn soil.

[@ryanbeard1119]

Ok. So how do you sep it at the end.

[@joannthompson765]

what kind of fertilizer did u use how many days does it need 100+

[@TemplarX2]

It would be a cooler if you used a wooden mortar and pestle a bit like the Africans do to separate the husks and the seeds.

[@MatthewSherriff85]

I have some oat seed to try and plant i should probation do it soon actually. Thanks for the info

[@Lyneaboom]

how do you manage leaving the oats out for a week after harvesting without having rodents or birds eat your grain?

[@lukejones1244]

Dont oats also have a "hull" that needs to be removed?

[@ajrwilde14]

yeah that will come later

[@leedoran7981]

how does it go from all this to what they sell in the cans. it doesn't look the same

[@algibs9095]

Now how to remove the husk?

[@BugsBunny7779]

Thank You!😃

[@lijit77]

So people are stamping on my breakfast?

[@daledenisetheel7290]

That is how you do your own oats on a small scale. Commercially it is done by machines.

[@kerronmcsween6095]

That's nothing think how they deal with this, 🍷🍾👈wine, crush it bare foot, we drink it and say ahhhhhh good wine good wine😂

[@JingleJoe]

that sickle looks blunt as fuck, did you sharpen it before use?

[@tomdufresne1784]

Informative!

[@CuriousMindCenter]

Thanks Jason. Nice video. Is glyphosate used to dry up the oat plants before harvesting?

[@carlamoyer8305]

Might as well just buy a box of quaker oats if you're gonna use glyphosate.

[@stanl.59]

Can I just put milk in my wild oats and eat it?

[@TheLazyWanderer]

Good details

[@joeybeanz76]

2:15 😂😂🚫🚫🚫

[@joshcruz2448]

Impressive

[@gulingjogja3151]

Petani yang bagus untuk itu Saya ingin meniru dengan kendala Bagaimana untuk mendapatkan bibit nya

[@lisajennings3385]

I never heard of letting your kids stomp on oats to thrash it. The Oat Police might give you a citation. Just don't do that for commercial sales.

[@chelsiehill5451]

Did you smack that little girl?

[@wendywinn270]

After seeing the process of stamping on the oats, I won't want to eat it anymore!

[@marek3041]

[@dojodance]

It is so funny to watch Americans use a sickle. They wack the living crap out of the plant instead of cut it. Most grains would fall off. Instead don't be lazy and sharpen that sickle and let the blade do the work so the oats don't all end up on the ground. Yes, I am American, so I can say this with a smile on my face, I sharpen my sickle.

[@Lovelyandgifted]

So simple. Thanks

[@BeingRomans829ed]

Mairzy doats.

[@gulingjogja3151]

Orang yang jadul tentang gadget kalau bisa untuk mendapatkan bibit minta tolong wa dengan bahasa Indonesia biar saya ngerti

[@DaudiMajozi]

way too bouncy holding the camera

[@fyerhead203]

Hi I love oatmeal, that is all folks!
