That sounds like hard work.
The BBQ charcoal I buy, I bash with a brick while it is in the bag.
It breaks up fairly well. For finer particles I use a mortar and pestle.

I visited Stephen Joseph , a lovely man at Best Energies, yesterday and he gave me a big bag of fine char. I am like a kid with a new toy running around putting it in different spots/pots.

He also gave me lots of articles/information to read- including some of the Japanese stuff I had found hard to access
As I go though them I will post any salient points here

It looks like all the Terra preta gurus will be here for the Terrigal Conference
