Video Transcription

it's a lot of feathers on the ground there's triple this solid insulation coyotes must be fun pretty good signai ting my Swedish Finnish torch I mean all I did was just take a couple pieces of firewood from my other fire you can see there's a twig two pieces of oak and I just put an ember I just literally broke off the piece from this stick that was ambered and wrapped by an orange broke it inside and I've just been laying this these bits of firewood around talk and you got it just right so it's it's also doing anything play with it

now it's gonna take a night itself you can see inside it's getting quite orange in there

this is from a recent storm only seems fitting to me some pine needle tea on my pine swish finish torch the torch is doing well cranking along just so you know don't want to leave a torch just lit like that I gathered the needles a couple feet from it certainly within sight you want to leave a fire unattended love with this little rock have canteens on the side very cool this torch is really like a stove little op sided make sure that's not juice sure it's good straight it's really like a stove right now like a burner right now it's just preheating once it's cranking along all on its own I don't need that firewood doesn't take long and I'm good to go in the mean time it takes care of it well I'm working on getting my materials together

tiny little stone the stem blow them right in there that way I can pull them out still in the stem right don't filter it or anything looking forward to this it's been a great while since I've had pine needle tea preheating nicely

and Keith a couple sticks on there use it like a little cooking stove solid good all right excellent check this out I'll let that warm up a little while I be having some nice pine needle tea once in a while just make sure it's suppose data

so there's something important about pine-needle tea I'm not gonna boil this I want as it is I just want it steamed if I boil it I'll pull too much too much SAP out of it would be like turpentine tasting so just warm it up I like to just warm it and just until the the needles really start to look kind of grayed out and the water aroma smells like pine even without the needles in it let's see the stove is doing very well I have two sticks there for stability as well as offering platform to create better air flow and as fuel as well obviously the stump itself is fuel once the torch starts burning down it gets more pronounced air channels that do a great job of constantly reheating all the ember base inside well it looks like we have a really good steam going on I'm gonna pull this off well it's at its optimum flavor

it's pretty nice trick well that smells good it's not too hot it's close but bunny LT on the old Swedish Finnish fire torch / stove very nice mmm

that's good that's real good nice little piece of natural woodland kit

it's good for making a brew at this size I want to cook soup have a pot I want a larger log obviously perfect size for brew though
