The “Two Pile System”
For an efficient operation you would have two piles:
The
first pile
or “main debris” pile, is the material being generated from the land clear-
ing or forest clearing operation and is located away from the ember path but with good
access to your loading machinery.
The
second pile
or “Good Wood” pile is your best and most burnable wood. When you
first setup the site the operator should spend some time sorting through the main de-
bris pile pulling out what appears to be your best and most burnable materials. This is
the material you will start the fire with, this is the material that will give you a good hot
burning base fire. You will also draw from the “Good Wood” pile throughout the day, if
you should need to stoke up the fire (more on this in the following sections).
As the pit operator is drawing from the main debris pile throughout the day, he should
continue to replenish the “Good Wood” pile as necessary. The “Good Wood” pile only
needs to be enough material to stoke-up the fire, if needed and enough material to get
you started the next day.
