[Terrapreta] Busting up lump charcoal for soil incorporation

[Sean K. Barry]

Hi Allan,

How about old style, horizontally rotated mill stones, like were used to grind grain into flour?

Regards,

SKB

  After thinking about this for way too long, it dawned on me that I 
  should ask the list for ideas for 'rapidly, efforlessly and cleanly' 
  breaking a couple dozen bags of lumb charcoal down to 1/8 inch 
  particles for soil incorporation.

  Like compost leaves in rotary mower, there must be some 'easy' way of 
  breakingdown lump charcoal that's yet to cross my mind.

  how do you do it?

  If I knew where to buy (or how to build) heavy enough screens, that's 
  how I'd do it.

  Thanks

  -Allan
