Had a big bonfire the other day and then the rains came. Bonfire ash as in
heading.
Will it lose anything as it dries out?
We normally put it into the compost heap bit by bit or mix it with the
compost as we sieve that out of the compost heap.
Suggestions welcome.

Wood ash, AKA "Lye" is what you need to manufacture your own soap.
