[TheForge] charcoal retort

Fri May 3 12:06:00 2002

Nice link.  I was wondering whether anyone had ever tried this on a "home" =
scale. =20

If anyone tries to duplicate this retort, you might want to consider using =
fire bricks instead of cement bricks. =20

Another possibility is to go back to the barrel idea, and use an air-intake=
 pipe with a throttle on it, as well as a flue pipe on the barrel.  =
Possibly you could monitor the temperature in the flue with a thermocouple,=
 and throttle back the air if the flue starts getting too hot. (What's =
"too hot"?)
