Thank you so much I had the same idea but didn't know if it will be better and i was very lazy to test it....so you really helped me 😁

Great work! I like this idea for blowing out some quick lift or break powder.. I live in an extremely humid climate so usually have to bake my kno3 before milling. So it's always a pain to make large batches of bp as you can imagine..

Great video!

The commercial plant that I researched used steam and compressed air to pulverize the potassium. They weighed it dry for each batch and then turned it into what they called slurry. On the other end they ball milled the charcoal sulfur together. They weighed out enough for the batch as dust that they moved with dry hot air. The batch was mixed and then it went through a puck press. The pucks were dried before grinding.

Nice video. Just a small suggestion...the only change I would make in demonstrations is to not torch the entire sample at once, which makes it harder to see how fast it burns. Maybe use a burn stick. But overall you did a better job than I would!

How strong are the granules? Do they turn into meal powder if you compact them hard?

Wow ur a smart guy, man u remind me of elemental maker. If u felt like making it id love to know more about differnt lift charges if u have any intrest/time. If not just know im loving ur channel.

Love the Idea, ability to make more with same amount of time. Tell me does it work well. Yes at end of video it ignites, How does it work launch any round balls? or other muzzle loader projectiles

i am definatly going to try that methode

This is definitely the safest way to manufacture! But when I heat up the solution and boil it and mix it with the powder, the powder always floats on top of the liquid, and it only mixes when the temperature of the liquid drops, Can't the heater be turned off during mixing?there's no stirring the powder in your video, so did I do something wrong?

By the was can I grind sulfur and charcoal in a coffee grinder instead of a ball mill....my ball mill isn't very stable so I don't want to use it

Question. I want to ball mill atomized copper powder for a painting project down to a certain micrometer along with other metals. What type of ball mill would you recommend and grinding material. I was gonna go with a thumblers tumbler but maybe there’s a better one that’s easier to open and won’t go everywhere since copper is so toxic.

good information, enjoy your channel.

Hey great vedio there 😀 , insted of making a large batch as you did can i just make around 40 g of granulated bp(to try it out before making a larger batch ) and still work ?

Will it be good for muzzleloaders without dextrin? I think for shooting muzzleloaders we should harden the granules?

Di not forget the charcoal and sulphur ti stabilise it

today i make 1000gr batch, 700gr kno3 with 300gr boiling water, work perfect but little mess when granulated. this method is perfect

How long did you roughly milled the charcoal and sulfur ?

Nice, but how does it shoot?

This way you will recognize almost nothing. Make 2 lines 1 meter long. And then you can measure the burning rate much more easily. And more precisely.

350 kno3 + 140 water + charcoal & sulphur??

you cant have water at 110 degrees Celsius it would be vapour

Use a Ferraral rod or a flintlock muzzleloader with a pan to have a spark ignition. Thats what im looking for how fast is it with a spark. But impressive and good job though. Yes will it hold up when pack or will it break down to powder like in milling . Has to be strong for muzzleloaders.

Which wood charcoal...?

damn thats a decent amount of bp can make hundreds of real bullets or some good burst charge👍

One video smokeels power

Now, if you were to have an equal amount of 90+% alcohol waiting in the freezer you could add it in immediately after everything is mixed.....you would get the benefits of having a much quicker drying time....

this isn't very effective if you live in a wintry hellhole, still though it's like something i'd do.

contaminate right out of the gate .
