Talk:Firepit

Can someone add pictures of the orange - yellow - white stages, and make it a bit clearer when to stoke the fire? It's tough to do with just this info. -shadeking

• I added information on the color of a fire as well. The Hue of a fire will be 0 during the stoke phase and 60 during the no stoke phase. --Vulpine 18:08, 26 January 2009 (EST)

Not sure if anyone's collecting stoke data (appears similar to T3). Here's a data point to start with:

200 limestone; 100 dried flax; 200 wood @ 25 stokes (~18 mins) = 21 Lime, 18 Ash, 39 cc

100 limestone; 100 dried flax; 100 leeks; 200 wood @ 1 stoke = 13 lime, 4 ash, 25 cc

Here's my T4 data:

100 limestone; 100 dried flax; 100 dried papyrus; 100 leeks; 200 wood @ 15 stokes = 19 lime, 51 ash, 35 cc

McArine data(not sure about the 30 stoke one being 30 stokes):

• 100 limestone; 100 dried flax; 100 dried papyrus; 100 leeks; 200 wood @ 0 stokes = 13 lime, 32 ash, 25 cc
• 100 limestone; 100 dried flax; 100 dried papyrus; 100 leeks; 200 wood @ 25 stokes = 22 lime, 60 ash, 40 cc
• 100 limestone; 100 dried flax; 100 dried papyrus; 100 leeks; 200 wood @ 30 stokes = 22 lime, 61 ash, 41 cc
• 100 limestone; 100 dried flax; 100 dried papyrus; 100 leeks; 200 wood @ 50 stokes = 26 lime, 76 ash, 48 cc

More: 100 limestone, 0 stokes -> 13 lime 100 leeks, 0 stokes -> 4 ash

Speed?

How quickly does the color cycle? I tried once and apparently missed the stoking point entirely, even though I thought I was seeing the color progression. -- Shebi 00:10, 13 January 2009 (EST)

• The speed will vary, in general the fire will remain in the stoke phase for around 14 seconds after you stoke. The next phase where the stoke button is removed and the fire will change colors seems to be around 5-10 seconds. The no stoke phase that follows is high variable, I have seen it last as little as 5 seconds and go for over 40. --Vulpine 18:08, 26 January 2009 (EST)
• I used a count of 12 seconds before stoking going 1 and 2 and .... and this worked well for about 10 stokes until my husband walked in. I broke the rhythm but I was able to stoke again about 5 times and then it smouldered out. My yield was between the 10-15 stoke yields. --Dianess 22:34, 5 February 2009 (EST)
