You can quickly strip the zinc with muriatic acid. Just do it outside outside carefully, and follow appropriate safety precautions that apply to handling, and using strong acids.
It's not so much that the zinc melts as it is that it melts, boils, and vaporizes, thus producing the harmful fumes. Zinc boils at 1665 degrees F, just below the melting point of brass (1710 degrees F). Melting brass in a furnace typically produces zinc fumes, and it is just something to be avoided.
I built a forge and a venturi burner like yours.when I light the burner and shut the lid on the forge my burner flame goes out.can you help with this problem
It could be that your forge’s vent hole might be too small. Can you share a picture or video of your set up to get a visual of what you’re working with.
I loved your first burner video, but this video is unwatchable. You need to edit out all the pauses. You stretched 20 seconds of content into 9 minutes.

Thanks man, I'm at this point now, having trouble reducing the yellow flame

How about BI pipes and fittings instead
Mate, just soak all the gal pats in Vinegar for 6 hours.

Once burned off you have steel.
