The moisture and gases escape from the wood through small openings or chambers and are then expelled into the air. As the moisture and gases are released, they create a cracking or popping sound which is often described as a “spitting” sound.

Therefore, ‘SPIT‘ is the correct answer for the crossword clue ‘Crackle, as a fire.’
