Hi all,
I spent last night harvesting about 3 lb of down, one source was a 30 year old winter sleeping bag and the other was a 30 year old duvet.
I expect both are lower quality but for those who know I am wondering if you can tell from the photo if down is one better than the other?
The sleeping bag down (left) looks like duck -it has a lot of brown and green feathers and the larger down clusters than the duvet.
In the duvet, the ratio of down to feathers is higher (fewer feathers) but both the feathers and down clusters appear smaller.
Like Craige suggested below I could weigh and volume test but I am hoping there is a quick visual indication to compare the two
Thanks and Cheers
