An ex's dad had one of those. He used to make them, then set them out to dry in his shed. He said the same thing.....they take AGES to dry out properly.

I presume you have to soak the paper to make the brick?
Couldn't you soak it in paraffin or something? It'll burn when wet that way

I have never had a lot of luck with these,.. first of all they do take forever to fry out, and secondly they create a lot of ash,...often so much that they put the fire out
RE: What have done towards your prep? - Scythe13 - 11 December 2012
Made a simple cache. Nothing huge.
25 tins, 1kg oats and 1kg pasta.
Enough for a few weeks if you're careful and reduced calorie intake. But enough to keep you going for a few more miles.
RE: What have done towards your prep? - Scythe13 - 11 December 2012
Just ordered some new gaiters and 2 water filters (the straw style ones for BOB and GHB)
RE: What have done towards your prep? - bigpaul - 11 December 2012

Treat them like firewood; make them now and let them "season" in the sun during the summer, then use them next winter.
