The BEST Camping Hacks To Make A Fire Last ALL Night..
Welcome back to Outdoor Central, today on the channel we are going to share to you The best hacks for creating a fire that lasts all night. Are you worried about keeping your fire warm all night long?
Do you want constant heat to help you survive a cold night? Keeping a fire going all night may not be safe in every situation, but it’s good to know in case you ever need to. There are ways to do this safely and enjoy your camping trip a little more. This is why I made this guide on how to keep a campfire going all night. Each of these tricks will help your campfire last longer. Some may be combined to make the whole process easier. Take a careful read and decide which one or ones are right for you based on what you have available.
One half inch-rule. The first thing to keep in mind is the half-inch rule. This governs how much wood is needed and how long it will last on fire. Of course, this rule isn’t set in stone and depends on the type of wood, the heat in the coals, and access to oxygen. But this will give you a good idea of how long a fire will last. The rule is: For every half-inch of wood, it’ll take about an hour to burn through. This rule changes with wood thicker than 6 inches. At this thickness and above, it switches to about an inch per hour. When planning out how much fuel you’ll need, keep this formula in mind. Thicker woods take longer to burn (as long as the fire is previously hot enough). Use Slow Burning Wood. Slower burning woods will be better for a long night.
These woods don’t usually burn hotter, but you don’t need the fire roaring. You’re looking for a long and slow burn. Kindling, newspaper, and twigs burn faster and are perfect for starting a campfire. Other woods are good for the initial fire too because they burn hot and fast. It helps to build a good bed of coals which is essential for a long-lasting fire. But once the fire is established, switch to thicker, slower burning wood.
