How to make brooding briquettes using 3 ingredients only|Off Grid living

These briquettes are a cheap alternative to ordinary charcoal /makaa .They provide a source of heat that lasts upto 3 times longer compared to ordinary charcoal/makaa, tinder and kindling.
The briquettes come in handy when cooking, homesteading, brooding chickens. For brooding, they are used in tandem with brooding pots in Africa,Kenya.
• How to use clay broodi... to see how that works.
This particular diy recipe I am showing you uses only 3 ingredients that are readily available in most homesteads. Charcoal dust,water and a binder. There are different variants of charcoal for making briquettes but the best is from hardwood. There are however people who make them from dry plants that char and that are combustible. Still works.
The binder is a solution that comprises a mixture of water and different sources of starch . For example corn flour,cassava flour..I personally use wheat flour. Hope You like this day recipe that's an alternative to charcoal and very inexpensive to make.Off grid living in kenya

    I had tried using some expired millet flour, red soil and charcoal dust. Also made balls by hand... IT WORKED!! (And I didn't even boil the flour!) I will definitely be trying this and also the maizemeal one but boiling the porridge! Asante my dear, keep up the good work!

    For perfect balls, you don't need to add water, you just sieve the dust to make them smoother then add the binder direct and then mix and start moulding your balls. Just my opinion.

    Hi Daniel. Thanks for the tips. This method is aimed to be so simple anyone can do it without any special equipment. .like the big sieve...but I do agree..the consistency is very different. I will definitely do it your way next time and compare. Thanks again.
