Boiling Water Step-by-Step
- Build a fire using firewood.
- Allow your fire to burn until the flames die down and the fire is reduced to embers. Place a pot or cast iron skillet atop the burning embers.
- Fill the pot or skillet with desired amount of water to be boiled.
- Allow the water to heat up and then eventually come to a rolling boil.
- Once the desired boiling point is achieved, remove the pot or skillet from the embers and allow the water to cool to a safe temperature.
