A Lizard And A Grass Snake On A Lichen Covered Log In A Woodland In Devon
You have to watch this carefully, because both of the stars of this short film are well camouflaged. We set the camera up to film a lizard basking in the sun and along came a young grass snake. The reptiles here are very shy. We recently saw slow worms here for the first time in the 14 years that we've lived here. We were over the moon to catch this!

On a nice sunny day at Bulworthy Project, Anna loads and lights the kiln, leaves it to burn overnight and closes it down. Then she returns the next day to unload it and bag up the charcoal. Thanks to the joys of time-lapse photography, this is all captured in a 90 second video.

This is a short video about sustainable charcoal making in Devon, UK. As well as talking about the process of charcoal making, it touches on the environmental issues surrounding charcoal production in the UK and abroad. Find out more at www.bulworthy.uk
Its way overcomplicated tbh, and not efficient... A propper retort will use the wood gas to heat itself
Do you make much charcoal?
Looks simple and efficient to me. That's quite a good size klin Produces lots of charcoals in 1 batch. Thumbs up!
Is the smoke causing bad impact to environment?
@@kkskoh it's mainly steam, but has those other constituents as well.
Wow... !!! My best friend, Great... We liked and enjoyed to the end. Thanks Have a happy day! Keep it up! +thumb up3!
Talk about over-engineering something. Just digging a hole in the ground is way cheaper, faster and easier.
@@Bulworthy And you didn't answer my question - how many times did you burn in a hole dug in the ground, since you're so lazy I'm not sure I wanna answer again.
I feel this process is quite dangerous because of accumulation of gas, and using direct method of burning produces alot of waste. Instead of having a second container inside the kiln for the wood. The direct the exhaust pipe into water to eliminate the smoke and with an out spout which has continious flame to burn out wood gas.
How much was the yield
Thank you for this vedio👌👌👌👌👍👍👍
Is the wood green or seasoned?
Gracias por compartir su trabajo, una pregunta la leña está verde o ya está seca?
Por lo que veo o he visto esta verde la queman para sacarle toda la agua
Me thinks much scrumpy is downed in these parts.
You knows.
Thanks very much 👍👍👍
super informative .... can i know pls on how to know when to close the vent and the cheminey opening ... and how long it took your process to finish ? is it a 24 hrs for carbonisation and another 24 hours to make it cool? your kind feed back is highly appreciated... thx and keep going , i saw a superb end product of charcoal !
In our 180cm wide, 100cm tall kiln, carbonisation takes about 15 hours. You should close off the vents & chimneys when the smoke as it leaves the chimney is clear. When the smoke is blue, you're burning the charcoal, so next time stop it a bit earlier. If you haven't seen it, have a look at www.devoncharcoal.co.uk/howto
@@Bulworthy thx for your prompt reply ... and for the related enclosed document ... can I know please what is the maximum wide and height that we can maximum build and in the same time to give a good quality charcoal and not exceeding a 24 hrs for carbonisation ?
@@jakjak6526 we don't know the answer to that. There are a lot of variables and we haven't experimented enough. Experiment and let us know.
@@Bulworthy will do in 2-3 months ... thx

This is a really bloody informative video, cheers guys. Didn't know you'd done this
Mirsse bokuo
pro tip: watch movies on Flixzone. I've been using them for watching all kinds of movies these days.
If you're going to make charcoal from all of that timber why not seperate the sizes when you stack it?
Brilliant skill!
Thanks! We'll tell Matthew you said so.
the tank has a tin floor or is grounded on the ground
Hello how did you go about buying the land and building the cabin as I know the council is quite strict in Mid Devon?
You should put your link in with your info so people can access your website. I liked your video, it was very informative.
alldaymusicman we're really glad that you liked the video. There are links in the comments to www.devoncharcoal.co.uk/howto for people who want to learn more online and www.bulworthyproject.org.uk/charcoalcourse for anyone who wants to come here and learn.
Great video guys!
A big thanks to Lee Matthews for making the video. Do take a look at his website: www.lee-matthews.com
More details of the cabin are at: www.bulworthyproject.org.uk/cabin
I have same name
very informative
Thanks for the hard work you put into the production of this video. One question please: What is the base of the kiln made of? Metal or earth?
J. Babi Weedor the kiln doesn't have a base as such. It sits on the 8 vents which act as air inlets and chimneys. These hold it appropriately 100mm above the ground.
Thanks for the prompt response.
...how long does it take to burn into charcoal?...
