A blacksmith melts iron by heating it in a forge, where a mixture of coal, charcoal, or gas is used to generate high temperatures. The iron is typically heated to around 1,538 degrees Celsius (2,800 degrees Fahrenheit) until it reaches a molten state. Once melted, the iron can be poured into molds or further processed for shaping and forging. Proper ventilation and oxygen control in the forge are essential to achieve the necessary heat for melting.
