Traditional Woodland Crafts in the UK: Charcoal Burning | RIng Kiln

Ever wondered how charcoal is made? Well here is an episode on how to make charcoal using a ring kiln charcoal burner in the woods. The ring kiln has several chimneys for outlets to let smoke out, and several inlets to let air in. A fire is lit at the bottom of the kiln and then the lid is put on. This then prevents the wood inside from igniting, but instead it smoulders and "chars". After several hours of slow burning, what remains is high quality organic charcoal from the woods!
