I measured about 25 grams of Spectracide's Stump Remover (KNO3, Potassium Nitrate), and then put in about 5 grams of just made willow branch charcoal, made by cooking the branches over a grill in a coffee can with a tin foil top with one hole. I then ground the two ingredients with about a tablespoon of Rubbing Alcohol, in the bullet blender, and I have gotten excellent texture. Sulfur FREE.

What do you all think, will this lift ? There is no Sulfur, there is only Charcoal and KNO3.

  • Yea without the proper sulfur triple mixture, it's kind of hard to get the best results. Ive made hundreds of mixes now, i stick with sulfur in my BP now.

    You can actually make great powder using just charcoal it really depends on the type of charcoal how pure it is and in what amounts you use.

    I used to make a good fast burning powder using sugar and just charcoal briquettes for grilling it burned slow compared to real black powder but it released a lot of energy fast and I was able to use it in my miniature cannon safely.
