Why do you need charcoal if you're boiling it?

[tim3jones]

@potsnpans1000 Charcoal is one of the most widely used substances to filter water.

[tim3jones]

Thank you for this very valuable video!!! I know how to distill water, but I did not know you could just toss a piece of charcoal and that would do just as well! I see those flowers all over my area in the spring and summer too! I'll be trying that in a few months! :) :) :)

[Gunkization]

GREAT videos man, i'm a city boy but this knowledge is priceless

the charcoal can be from a regular fire made from tinder and kindling? also I know charcoal helps remove pollutants/chemicals, just throwing it in the boiling water will have this same effect?

[tim3jones]

@Gunkization The charcoal can be from camp fire, Throwing it in the boiling water will Help removing pollutants, chemicals.

[hypersonicdragon]

[tim3jones]

@hypersonicdragon Thank you, Was it Indian tea?

[hypersonicdragon]

I like ur way of survival it's bad ass. How u no so much about native Americans

[lukkbox]

hey tim

type 'Chinese Military Shovel' into youtube when you get a spare 9 minutes in your life, i have a feeling a man such as yourself could well use one of these amazing tools

first couple of minutes are just normal shovel duties, but then it gets interesting ... let me know what you think

Dan

[lukkbox]

please pardon my stupidity tim, i just want clarification before i try this myself, your technique is to just boil the water with the crushed charcoal in it? then you filter out the charcoal or just drink that down too? is that correct?

i always said a healthy dose of clay and charred carbon does you the world of good lol!

great vids man keep them coming your really passing on some wisdom to folks here!

[tim3jones]

@lukkbox boiling the water then ad crushed charcoal is a great purifier, it don't take much charcoal but it works great .

[sneakabout27]

Thank you so

[sneakabout27]

My friend and I are about to camp like you, where we have to make everything. The charcoal, do we just mash it up and put it directly in the water? Or do we have to have that thingy u put it in?

[tim3jones]

@sneakabout27 you can mash it up, It don't need a lot of charcoal a1/2 teaspoon for 16 oz .

[hiddenfall]

Very interesting to watch, thanks for posting :).

[tim3jones]

@hiddenfall Your welcome.

[shotsxxx]

I was wondering if you have yaupon holly where you live?- I have just discovered that the caffeine content is up to 20 times more than that which is in coffee. All one has to do is boil the leaves. I am in the deep south and it grows wild here everywhere. Just thought it would go great with the tea- Great videos please keep them coming.

[tim3jones]

@shotsxxx Yes it grows here i Okla, Thank you for sharing.  :)

[highawareness]
