在德国哈茨山脉，费尔德梅尔兄弟接管了家族传统木炭生产企业，继续守护这项已有1000多年历史的古老手工艺。[1]他们从父亲手中继承了Harzköhlerei Stemberghaus企业，采用传统土炉工艺生产木炭。[1]以山毛榉木为原料，年产量约40吨，木炭装入10公斤重的袋子销售给家庭烧烤使用者。[1]费尔德梅尔表示，"我们的木炭首先由纯山毛榉木制成"。[1]
传统的木炭烧制过程需要精心守护，生产者必须日夜防范火灾风险。[1]为了补充收入并传播这一传统工艺，兄弟俩还开设了博物馆、商店和餐厅。[1]费尔德梅尔表示，"我们希望我们的孩子能接管这里的企业，继续运营，保护传统木炭烧制工艺"。[1]
In the Harz Mountains of Germany, brothers Immo and Sascha Feldmer have taken over a traditional charcoal production business from their father, continuing a craft that has flourished in the region for more than 1,000 years.[1] The brothers operate Harzköhlerei Stemberghaus near the town of Haselfeld, producing charcoal using traditional earthen kilns and beech wood as their primary raw material.[1] According to Immo Feldmer, "Our charcoal is, first and foremost, made from pure beech wood."[1]
The operation produces approximately 40 tons of charcoal annually, which is packaged in 10-kilogram bags and sold primarily to household grilling enthusiasts.[1] The traditional kiln method requires constant vigilance day and night to prevent fires, demanding significant labor and dedication from the brothers.[1] To supplement their income and broaden their enterprise, the Feldmers have established a museum, shop, and restaurant at their location.[1] Looking toward the future, Feldmer expressed hope that the next generation will carry forward the business and protect this centuries-old craft, stating: "We hope our children can take over the operation here and continue to preserve the traditional charcoal-burning craft."[1]
