Default Ammonia Smell on Lump?

Is ammonia a byproduct of wood distillation or did a cow **** on my
lump?

Something ****ed on your lump anyway.

I've noticed very weak smells of ammonia with burning wood before
though (whiffs really). IIRC ammonia can happen with wood+water+fire.
But that could be faulty memory.
