I'm here after reading Sumiyaki Monogatari. and i gotta say; man these japanese, they will turn everything in an art by trying hard to figure out every single detail of any craft. and i cant but respect that.
@@Ryunohara it's a very good one, and is in fact a manga adaptation (in realistic style) of an autobiographical book of a charcoal maker that takes place in 1950s i think. Highly recommended.
I've been using pok pok and charblox to great success in the US. It burns very hot and very long as well. I do plan on picking up some bincho. The really dense stuff takes forever to get lit, but burns for hours at very high heat.
@@Ryunohara I can't believe haha charcoals turn into activate charcoal burn at 800-1000 degree Celsius that very hot. Can, see fiery red ablaze heating up & rapid cooling it will cool down after somewhat days ahah.

The 92 year old father still helping out is very heart warming. He moves slowly but with the confidence of an old expert.
Well…as usual, the Japanese take it to another level of care and refinement
Thanks for sharing this tradition of making binchotan charcoal. Again another great way of promoting local businesses and traditions.
You’re welcome! We’re going to use the binchotan to grill food with at Ryunohara Shokudo.
It’s worth the cost! This is truly the best charcoal for yakatori!

In America, older people are told to "Stop working, sit down, relax" then they wonder why they die at 70
I should try to make some charcoal. Thanks for sharing the video, keep on grilling.
Go for it!
if the charcoal is there burning how does it turn into charcoal?
The wood is turning into charcoal in the kiln
is the ash hes dousing it in not Carbon?
The ash is from the previous batch of charcoal
@@Ryunohara my point being that the ash is carbon being added to the char coal
