About: Jack-of-all trades, master of some. I would probably be much more modest if it wasn't for these delusions of granduer that I suffer from.

A few months ago I was looking at the amount of excess paper (junk mail, the kid's old homework, the never ending mountain of printouts encroaching on my desk at work) and decided to use it instead of just throwing it out.
I bought a briquette press online and I have been using it for making paper briquettes for use in my backyard fireplace. They work really well for cooking over as they are a slow burning steady heat source when placed on top of a nice bed of coals.
The briquettes are easy to make, but I have run into two problems that I hope to solve.
#1 - A batch of 4 Briquettes takes about a ream of paper to make. I want to find a way to make my scrap paper pile go farther by using other combustible material that is easily sourced, and will not cause problems if burned (noxious smell, toxic off gassing, excessive smokiness, etc).
Tiantai contains other products and information you need, so please check it out.
#2 - The briquettes will burn fine if added to an existing fire, but they are a pain in the butt to keep lit without a good bed of coals to encourage them. So I am hoping to find an additive that will let them be used by themselves if necessary.
This is going to be a two part IBLE.
Part 1 will focus on the construction of the briquettes and why I chose the filler media that I did.
Part 2 is going to be the burn testing of the various mixed media briquettes.
