Fire and forget bonfires, single ingredients

• Build the bonfire
• Add the resource
• Light the fire
• Let it burn out

These bonfires will waste resources, but are the easiest to make.

Charcoal	37 wood.	Yields 5 cc. ...29 wood -> 4 cc is more wood-efficient.
Ash from Papyrus	56 wood, 17 dried papyrus.	Yields 5 ash, 5 cc.
Ash from Garlic	67 wood, 60 garlic.	Yields 7 ash, 5 cc.
Ash from Carrots	277 wood, 264 carrots.	Yields 28 ash, 2 cc. 112 carrots are wasted during the burn.
Ash from Cabbage	436 wood, 520 cabbage.	Yields 38 ash, 2 cc. 247 cabbages are wasted during the burn.
Lime	46 wood, 15 limestone.	Yields 5 lime, 5 cc. 7 limestone are wasted during the burn.
Grilled Fish	191 wood, 21 fish (of each type).	Yields 21 grilled fish, 2cc. Note: You can add 21 fish of each available type, so the maximum is to add 9x21 fish and yield 9x21 grilled fish. It is also possible to add less fish, if you don't have enough of any type.

For nice multipurpose bonfire use the papyrus recipe above, add 15 limestone and 3 of each kind of fish you have available. You will get the 5 ash and 5 cc along with 5 lime and 3 grilled fish for each kind of fish. (OldJoe)

One-add bonfires, single ingredients

• build a bonfire and light it
• at a given amount of wood left, add the resource
• let the fire burn out

Just a few resources are wasted in the burn (for 1 tick), but you will need some more wood than with stoked fires.

Ash from Papyrus	29 wood	At 19 wood left, add 7 dried papyrus.	Yields 3 ash, 4 cc.	Verified
Ash from Garlic***	67 wood	At 31 wood left, add 28 garlic.	Yields 7 ash, 5 cc.	Verified
Ash from Carrots	277 wood	At 172 wood left, add 152 carrots.	Yields 28 ash, 2 cc.	Verified
Ash from Cabbage	436 wood	At 246 wood left, add 273 cabbages.	Yields 38 ash, 2 cc.	Verified
Lime**	46 wood	At 43 wood left, add 15 limestone	Yields 5 lime, 5 cc.	**
Lime	46 wood	At 25 wood left, add 7 limestone	Yields 4 lime, 5 cc.	Verified

 ** - This is the same result as a fire-and-forget
 *** - Adding 9 dried papyrus at 31 wood yields 3 more ash

Charcoal

Charcoal only

• N Wood --> (N-3)/2 cc [2 + 1^2 + (1/1)^n] (where + means wait for zero, ^ means repeat the above, a number x means add that much wood, and x/y means add x wood and y water, "^n" means you can continue repeating this part forever, it will keep producing)
  • Make bonfire with 2 wood.
  • At 0, add 1 wood. Repeat 2 times. [Temp will be 4.]
  • At 0, add 1 wood, add 1 water. Repeat until out of wood.
  • yields (N-3)/2 cc

Note: This is only half as efficient as the best oscillating formula, and wood/water has to be added every tick, not every other tick.

• 9 wood --> 5 cc
  • Make bonfire with 2 wood.
  • At 0, add 1 wood. Repeat 7 times.
  • yields 5 cc
  • If your lucky and repeat 8 times you can make 6cc from 10 wood!!!

• 10 wood --> 5cc
  • Make bonfire with 4 wood.
  • At 0, add 1 wood. Repeat 6 times.
  • yields 5 cc. Needs 1 more wood, but 1 less clicking than above.

• 14 wood --> 10cc
  • Make bonfire with 4 wood.
  • At 0, add 1 wood. Repeat 10 times in 20 teppysecond intervals.
  • Yields 10 cc!!-- Submitted by Wylium
    • This didn't work for me, only yielded 4cc zebediah (10th Aug 05)
    • This did not work for me either,4 cc only. Gene (28th Nov 05)
    • It wouldn't, unless you add the 10 woods about 20 teppyseconds apart. Correcting recipe. Note that this is actually just the osciliating recipe restricted to 10 adds --- Cappu.
    • Is it possible to just keep adding wood and get more cc at the end? I'm gunna test this. --Setheri

• 37 wood --> 5cc (never has to be restoked)
  • make a bonfire with 37 wood
  • let it burn out
  • Yeilds 5cc
  • Do 10 or 20 bonfires at a time 10 will make 50 and 20 will make 100

See it's that simple

== Ok, this CC recipe is pretty hard. I learned it from a friend before he left, then i eventully left to. I've looked all over for thi recipe but could find it. If there is any corrections to be made(most likely) please correct.==

• Any amount of wood ---> as much CC (depends on how much wood you use)
  • make as much bonfires as you think you can handle in 20 secs i beleive.(maybe like 5 in a row 2 rows to start)
  • Once it hits 0 wood burning add 1 wood and start counting down from 20secs while adding 1 wood to the other fires??????(correct if wrong)
  • Once it hits burning 0 wood do the same thing as you did before in step 2.
  • Makes 1 CC for every wood you use.

  ==Pretty simple, but you might want to get like a clock and do it just to make sure.==

Mass charcoal and lime

Note: N means you can choose the amount. I use 10 bonfires for this, but someone who can click faster could do 15 or 20 or more. I suggest starting out with 1.

• Make N 29 wood bonfires. Add 8 limestone to each bonfire.
• Choose how much time you want this to take (in increments of 20 teppyseconds). Let's call this number T. Note: The whole thing will take about 120 seconds longer than this.
• Grab T*N/20 wood and T*N/10 limestone.
• Add T/N/10 limestone into each bonfire (evenly distrbute it all)
• Set up a chat timer if you haven't already done so. See Bonfires for an explanation on how to do this.
• Light the bonfires when your chat timer is at a convenient time.
• Wait until 0 wood is left in the first bonfire. Wait another 10 teppyseconds. Then add 1 wood to each of the bonfires, in the same order as they were lit. For each bonfire you have a 10 teppysecond window during which you should add the wood. When you first light the bonfires I suggest doing so very fast, and when adding 1 wood do it at a slightly slower pace to ensure that you don't add the wood too early. This whole step must take less than 20 teppyseconds.
• Let the bonfires die down when you run out of wood.

Produces T*N/20+3 cc and 7*T*N/100+1 lime (rounded down).

Example: Let's say you want to do this with 5 bonfires and don't want to spend more than 5 minutes stoking the fire. This means N=5 and T=300. You will need 75 wood and 150 limestone in addition to the ones you add in the beginning. You'll end up with 78cc and 106 lime.

Note: This recipe is very difficult to get right. If you mess up anywhere you'll likely have to start the whole thing over, especially if you're doing this with multiple bonfires. I don't recommend trying this one until you can do oscillating charcoal easily and understand how it works. DO NOT try this unless you understand all of the above.

Corrections by Roen:

• You'll add T/10 Lime per fire not T/N/10
• Instead of 29 wood BFs that you let fall by 1° at 0 wood left, make 22 wood BFs and begin your wood additions when they hit 0 wood. With 20 BFs it's a 140 wood save.

Simple Charcoal and ash

Fire-and-forget

• 29 wood fire, add 12 papy

• light it
• yields 3 ash, 4cc

• 277 wood fire, 264 carrots
• light it
• yields 28 ash, 2cc

• 436 wood fire, 520 cabbage
• light it
• yields 38? ash, 2cc

one-add

• 29 wood fire, light it
• at 19 wood left, add 7 dried papy.
• Yields 3 ash, 4 cc.

• 436 wood fire, light it
• at 226 wood left, add 273 cabbage
• Yields 36 ash, 2 cc.

I accidentally added the cabbage at 265 wood remaining and it still gave the same result -Setheri

multi-add

• build a bonfire of 277 wood and light it
• at 232 wood left, add 12 garlic (10 garlic works for this also, if the rest of the recipe is followed)
• at 172 wood left, add 152 carrots
• at 87 wood left, add 117 cabbages
• yield is 2 cc and 47 ash
• you can omit veggie steps if you want (yield from garlic is 3 ash, carrots 28 ash, cabbages 16 ash)

Verified 7/27/2005

Calculation :

Bonfire of 436 wood. At 400 add 12 garlic, at 331 add 168 carrots, at 246 add 273 cabbage -> Should give 3 ash from 12 garlic, 28 ash from 168 carrots and 38 ash from 273 cabbage. Only got 56 ash, 2 cc from this, should have made 69 ash? - Djehutmose

96 carrots are wasted during the burn, you only added 16 leaving you ~15 ash short. To save wasting carrots I would only add 76 carrots or use less wood and less cabbages, depending which veg i had most of - Beren

Simple Charcoal, ash, and lime

Fire-and-forget

• 37 wood fire, add 13 papy and 11 limestone, light it
• yields 4 ash, 4 lime, 5 cc

one-add

• 37 wood fire, add 11 limestone, light it
• burn to 27 and add 9 dried papy
• yields 5cc, 4 lime, 4 ash

two-adds

• 37 wood fire, light it

• burn to 27 and add 9 dried papy
• at (or any time before) 22 wood left, add 10 limestone
• yields 5 cc, 4 lime, 4 ash

• Make a bonfire with 46 wood, and light it
• at 40 wood left, add 15 limestone
• yields 5 cc, 5 lime
• for 1 ash, add 6 garlic at 1 wood left

• Yields 7 ash, 5 cc, 4 lime (Mindl)
• Make a 67 wood bonfire and light it
• At 39 wood, add 15 Limestone
• At 31 wood, add 28 Garlic
• Let it burn out

Charcoal and lime, stoked

• Make bonfire with 2 wood.
• At 0, add 1 wood. Repeat 8 times.
• At 0, add 3 limestone.
• yields 5 cc, 2 lime.

Confimed this works - Keefster 14/09/04

Advanced Timed CC and Lime

• Make bonfire with 2 wood.
• At 0, add 1 wood. Repeat 4 times.
• At 0, add 6 limestone and 1 wood.
• At 0, add 1 wood.
• At 0, wait 1 tick then add 1 wood. Repeat 2 times.
• At 0, wait 2 ticks then go back to the third step (adding limestone).
• Yield: 2cc + (4cc and 4 lime) for each repetition
• Reasoning: Heat after step 2 is 6 (1.5cc for 4-5-6), during the repetition, heat flows as 7-8-7-8-7-8(limestone burnt into 4 lime, 3cc made)-7-6(back to starting heat, 1cc made). When you stop, you get 1cc for cooldown 5-4.
• "Advanced" here means we have 1 and 2 tick cooldowns, please don't try this at home ;)

Bulk Lime Production

This is not the most wood efficient recipe, but it is similar to the bulk T1 recipe.

• Materials required: 771 wood, 100 limestone, 98 water in jugs
• Product: 70 lime, 53 charcoal

• 1) Build a 771 wood bonfire and light it
• 2) At 750 wood left, add 100 limestone
• 3) Add 2 water at every multiple of 15 wood left (735, 720, 705, etc.) Last water is used at 15 wood remaining.
• 4) When it reaches 0 wood, just let it burn out.

Ed: This recipe works for any combination of n*15+21 wood, 2*n limestone, 2*(n-1) water in jugs and will produce 1.4*n lime and n+3 Charcoal. n should be a multiple of 5, otherwise you will lose 1 lime due to rounding. Example for n=10: 171 wood, 20 limestone, 18 water produce 14 lime and 13 cc. -- Pyramidis

Stoked Bulk Lime Production

• Materials required: 129 wood, 100 limestone, 100 water in jugs
• Product: 70 lime, and 54 charcoal

• 1) Build a 29 wood bonfire and light it
• 2) When it reaches 1 wood, add 100 limestone
• 3) Every time it reaches 0 wood, add 1 wood and 1 water.
• 4) When you run out of water & wood, let it burn out.

It would probably be best to run several of these at a time.

Lime/Ash Production (modified from above)

• Materials required: 137 wood, 100 limestone, 400 garlic, 100 water in jugs
• Product: 70 lime, 122 ash, 5 charcoal

• 1) Build a 37 wood bonfire and light it
• 2) When it reaches 9 wood, add 100 limestone
• 3) When it reaches 1 wood, add 400 garlic
• 4) Every time it reaches 0 wood, add 1 wood and 1 water.
• 5) When you run out of water & wood, let it burn out.

It would probably be best to run several of these at a time.
(gotta love those aqueducts, eh?)

Stoked Ash

This is purely Stoked Ash (But i will be ading limestone production into it soon too...) and dont forget small amounts of CC as a bonus.

Cabbage and Carrot recipy. You will need 30 wood, 172 (or 152 carrots) and 246 (or try 273) cabbage. Optional 28 garlic This produces 47 Ash and 2 CC. Produces around 7 more ash

Using 152 Carrots, 273 Cabbage and 28 Garlic will produce 59 Ash ~Skeet

• 1) Make sure you have the resources ready.
• 2) Make a 2 wood bonfire
• 3) Light it
• 4) when wood reaches 0 add one wood This is 3 of the 30 wood used
• 5) Optional. After you add wood 6 more times add all the garlic then skip number 5 below and continue to add wood 6 more times.
• 5) (skip if you have added Garlic) And wait for this one wood to reach 0 and add one more wood and repeat 11 more times this is 15 of the wood used hopefully.
• 6) Now add the carrots (All of them)
• 7) Keep adding the wood..repeat 5 times.
• 8) Now you should have used 20 wood and have 10 left in the inventory... Add ALL cabbage
• 9) Keep addiing wood 10 more times (All wood depleted)
• 10) Let fire burn out.

For just cabbage: Produces 28 Ash and 2 CC

You will need 30 wood, and 246 cabbage.

• 1) Make sure you have the resources ready.
• 2) Make a 2 wood bonfire.
• 3) Light it.
• 4) When wood reaches 0 add one wood This is 3 of the 30 wood used.
• 5) And wait for this one wood to reach 0 and add one more wood and repeat 16 more times this is 20 of the wood used hopefully.
• 6) Now you should have used 20 wood and have 10 left in the inventory... Add ALL cabbage.
• 7) Keep addiing wood 10 more times (All wood depleted) .
• 8) Let fire burn out.

For just carrots: 28 Ash, 2 CC. You will need 24 wood, 172 carrots.

• 1) Make sure you have the resources ready.
• 2) Make a 2 wood bonfire.
• 3) Light it.
• 4) When wood reaches 0 add one wood This is 3 of the 24 wood used.
• 5) And wait for this one wood to reach 0 and add one more wood and repeat 11 more times this is 15 of the wood used hopefully.
• 6) Now add the carrots (All of them).
• 7) Keep adding the wood..repeat 9 times.
• 8) Let fire burn out.

Stoked Charcoal and Ash

This is a garlic recipe:

You need 11 wood 28 garlic.

Produces 7 Ash and 5 CC.

• 1) Make sure you have materials ready.
• 2) Make a 2 wood bonfire.
• 3) Light it.
• 4) When wood reaches 0 add one wood This is 3 of the 11 wood used.
• 5) And wait for this one wood to reach 0 and add one more wood and repeat 6 more times this is 9 of the wood used .hopefully.
• 6) Now add the Garlic (All of them).
• 7) Now keep adding wood in the same manner as before until wood equals zero
• 8) Let fire burn out.

If you wish to add Lime into these recipies just /chat clintonio as im not 100% sure they will work but it seems easy to just add them in.

Oscillating CC and Ash

• Make 10 bonfire with 11 woods
• They should be in 2 rows of 5, one row is A other row is B
• Put X papyrus in each fire
• Have X*5 wood in inventory

• 1 Light row A
• 2 When row A hit 8 woods light row B
• 3 When row A hit 0 wood add 1 wood to row A
• 4 When row B hit 0 wood add 1 wood to row B
• 5 When row B hit 0 wood add 1 wood to row A
• 6 When row A hit 0 wood add 1 wood to row B

Repeat 5 and 6 until you don't have any more wood.

Yields: 600 papyrus(60per fire) and 410 woods (11*10 start + 300 added) gave me approximatly 250 ash and 350 cc in 10 minutes.

120 papy (12per) and 170 wood (11*10 start + 60 added) gave me 30 ash and 70 cc (less efficient papy-wise than 29-19-7 one-add ash papy recipe, though you do get more charcoal). Perhaps the recipe above needs a better description?

Confirmed above statement: This recipe produces approx 4:1 papy to ash. I did 20 bonfires with 60 papy each (1200 total), produced ~300 ash and ~600 cc. Good recipe if you want to make cc at the same time, otherwise, I would also recommend the one-add recipe for ash. -Worf

If you don't fear carpal tunnel harm you can do it with 20 fires (2 rows of 10) cutting production time by 2.

Simple Grilled Fish

• Make a 191 wood bonfire.
• Add 21 of each type of fish (or as many as you can get, but no more than 21 per fish type).
• Light and wait for it to burn out.
• Produces up to 168 grilled fish (8x21).

Stoked Grilled Fish

• Have 20 wood in your inventory.
• Make a 2 wood bonfire.
• Add 21 of each type of fish (or as many as you can get, but no more than 21 per fish type).
• Light the bonfire.
• 18 times: At 0, add 1 wood (do this EXACTLY 18 times - start with 20 wood before building your bonfire).
• Produces up to 168 grilled fish (8x21).

Advanced Grilled Fish

2 oscillating fires:

Prepare X of each fish Prepare X/2 +100 woods

• 1- Make 2 50 woods bonfires
• 2- Add X/2 of each fish in each fire
• 3- Light fire A
• 4- When fire A hit 47 wood (1 tick) light fire B

• 5- When fire A hit 0 add 1 wood to fire A
• 6- When fire B hit 0 add 1 wood to fire B
• 7- When fire B hit 0 add 1 wood to fire A
• 8- When fire A hit 0 add 1 wood to fire B
• Repeat 7 and 8 X/4 times

Yields X grilled per type of fish for X/2+100 wood

For example 800 grilled fish for 150 wood in 18 minutes with 100 of 8 type of fish

Efficient carrots to ash

• Take 24 wood and 152 carrots
• Make and light a 2 wood bonfire
• Whenever the wood hits 0, add 1 wood, keep repeating this
• When you have 9 wood left in your inventory, add 152 carrots
• Don't forget to also add the 1 wood when it reaches 0, keep repeating this until you run out of wood

Yield: 28 ash and 2 cc.

Mainly cabbages -> ash, with optional carrots, garlic and dried papyrus

A non-oscillating recipe.

• Grab 30 wood and 273 cabbages. Optional: 12 garlic, 80 carrots, 5 dried papyrus.
• Make 2 wood bonfire and light it.
• At 0 wood left, add 1 wood to the bonfire. Keep repeating...
• Optional: When you have 26 wood left in inventory, add 5 dried papyrus.
• Optional: When you have 21 wood left in inventory, add 12 garlic.
• Optional: When you have 16 wood left in inventory, add 80 carrots.
• When you have 11 wood left in inventory, add 273 cabbage.
• Keep adding 1 wood at 0 wood left, until you run out of wood.
• Let the bonfire burn out. (You can also dowse the fire with 19 water jugs 2 teppyminutes (slightly more than 2 minutes) after adding the last piece of wood, at the cost of 2 cc)

Produces 38 ash if only cabbage is used.
Produces 53 ash if cabbages and carrots are used.
Produces 56 ash if cabbages, carrots and garlic are used.
Produces 58 ash if cabbages, carrots, garlic and dried papyrus are used.
Note: also produces 2 charcoal.
Also note: You can also use 26 more cabbage and 1 more wood to get about 2 more ash. You'd have to modify the recipe slightly, though.

Mass Charcoal Lime Ash

My master bonfire reciepe. I hope you have a good mouse and good carpian tunnel

1. Have 220+X wood, X*2+60 Papyrus, X*2+60 Limestone
2. Built 10 22 wood bonfires in 2 rows that we'll call A and B
3. Add X/5+6 Papy and Limestone in each bonfire
4. Light row A
5. When row A falls to 19 wood, light row B
6. When row A falls to 0 wood, add 1 wood to row A
7. When row B falls to 0 wood, add 1 wood to row B
8. When row B falls to 0 wood, add 1 wood to row A
9. When row A falls to 0 wood, add 1 wood to row B

Repeat 8 and 9 X/10 times

Will yield:

• X cc
• 4X/9 Ash
• 0.7*X Lime

In fact as you'll miss some additions (after 300 additions I can swear you'll miss some) the yield will be a little bit inferior to this theorical one.

As an exemple my first test on this master fire where I lost at least 2-3 fires:

• 720 wood, 1060 papyrus, 1060 Limestone
• +/- 350 cc
• +/- 400 Ash
• +/- 450 Lime
• 18 minutes of clicking

On last word, if you don't fear your mouse causing you harm, I encourage you to run this with 20 fires instead of 10, and for the hardcore part of you, try 40.
