The wood is burned towards the back of the barrel, once a fire is going good on top more is piled in. Because of how the wood is piled in the barrel, the wood burning on top cooks the wood in the bottom layers to charcoal. This is perfect for turning pine into BP charcoal because the high temperature cooking removes all the creosote. The charcoal is then washed to keep it from turning to ash, and removing any ash that may have fallen off the top logs. Drying time is about 5 days outdoors in my 60% humidity.
