One of my son in laws makes his own charcoal. I like it when he comes for a visit, he brings me 4 5 gallon buckets full of his home made charcoal. Kingsford ain't got nothing on him I can tell you that. Simply no comparison in taste and cooking/smoking temperature control.
Does he have a kiln for it? I'd like a dual purpose kiln I could close off for making charcoal as well. I found plans for one woodburner kiln that used a rocket stove to power it.One of my son in laws makes his own charcoal.

I honestly do not know and have not seen his setup for making charcoal. I would txt him but it's kind of late since he's on the east coast. I'll try and remember to txt him tomorrow though. He only makes charcoal out of cherry or hickory which for us in the Midwest, is the bee's knees for BBQing. If I had to guess I'm thinking something with 55 gallon drums. He's a welder by trade, so who knows what he came up with? But I'll find out for you.
not that I completely understand how it works or anything. But here's pictures and a high level explanation. I guessed partially right there is a 55 gallon drum involved.
