You begin to study the instructions and slowly understand how ingot refining works.  First, you must place smeltable metal into a ceramic crucible.  A crucible is usually provided in each Forging Crafting Society.  Only a single piece of metal can be refined at a time due to the complex nature of the process.
The refining process starts when you POUR FLUX in the CRUCIBLE.  You must then STIR the CRUCIBLE with a STIRRING ROD and periodically shovel in more fuel and stoke the flames with a bellows.
Flux is a term used to describe borax and other chemical reagents that bond with impurities in the metal and end up as unused slag.  Each supply store stocks flux and the other tools you will be needing.  It is advised you bring a shovel and bellows to the forge as periodic stoking of the fire may be necessary.
