One of the qualities of biochar is determined by the method in biochar production. The development of methods is carried out in traditional (Soil-Pit), conventional (Drum), and modern ways (Kon-Tiki). Thus, it is necessary to study the characteristics of the method in biochar production. The treatment units were allocated based on a Completely Randomized Design with three replication. The results showed that the characteristics of bamboo biochar based on the method of biochar production has a significant on the duration of firing and moisture of biochar and chemical properties of bamboo biochar on pH, EC, liming potential, proximate analysis, CEC, and cation bases (K, Ca and Na-exch), C Inorganic and C Organic. The best method of production of biochar bamboo is modern ways (Kon-Tiki) because it has effective time in the process production, high moisture, yield ratio compared to other methods, and less smoke so it can reduce air pollution.
