SKC Posted March 22 Posted March 22 Charcoal is almost exhausted as I have used most of it this year compared to previous years. As I do not use bought charcoal in my every fireworks so this calls for making of charcoal 6-7kg for the next few years. I have accumulated around 30kilogram of particular wood. Debarked them, cut them into small stick sizes and they are drying up batch by batch under the Sun. Summer is setting in and firing wood is also well dried. I will charr them when I get time and of course I am in mood. The paint can is completely burnt and got blackened due to extensive use. I dug a hole on the ground around of 1 foot depth and the circumference is reciprocal to the can so that the heat is not wasted. The paint can is 3/4th filled and takes around 45min-1hr depending upon the intensity of the fire to produce a flame at the vent hole. Not only that, after cooling off I check every stick(THEY ARE BRITTLE LIKE BISCUITS) by breaking them whether it is completely burnt. If any stick feels hard inside it again goes to can for re-charring. Thus I get 1st class grade charcoal, every time. All comments are welcome. Charcoal.mp4
