There is nothing more appealing than a hot fire on a cold winter’s night. At the same time, there is nothing more frustrating than constantly having to add fuel to the fire to keep it going. If you are looking for a longer-burning fuel without dangerous chemicals and pollutants, then you may want to consider changing to our Ready to Burn certified wooden briquettes.
Our briquettes are one hundred percent natural and sustainable, offering you a long burn time, thanks to their composition. Briquettes are made from sawmill waste, including saw dust and wood chips. These are usually discarded by the sawmills, yet once compressed and the moisture removed, they offer you a steady and long burn, reducing how much time you spend tending to your fire, giving you more time to enjoy it.
What Makes Our Briquettes Burn So Long?
Natural sawmill by-products are the secret to this success, along with a low moisture content. These by-products have the ideal properties to create long-burning briquettes. Our briquettes burn for longer, as the wood doesn’t have to use the fire as energy to dry them. As they are already dried and compressed, they burn considerably longer than traditional logs.
It’s all about how the briquettes release their energy. They offer superior heat output, a clean burn, and a longer burn time, meaning you use less briquettes per fire, saving you money in the long run.
We use hardwood by-products, which are automatically denser than softwood. Our hand selected wooden briquettes offer an excellent balance of burn time and heat output. If you want the best heat output, consider our hardwood heat logs.
Should You Choose Our Briquettes?
 Wooden briquettes are made using by-products of the sawmill industry, making them environmentally friendly and sustainable. Our briquettes are ideal if you want to save money by reducing how many logs you use to make a fire to warm your home each evening. If you find that traditional logs are burning money, then consider trying our briquettes.
Our wood briquettes and heat logs can be used as a main source of fuel throughout the winter months. You will still need to use kindling to get the fire going, but due to the low moisture content and dense consistency of the briquettes, they catch alight easily, providing you with welcome warmth, while reducing creosote, smoke, and ash.
Are Your Briquettes Easy to Use?
Our briquettes are as easy to use as our Ready to Burn certified kiln dried logs. All they need is a little assistance to get going. You can take a look at the kindling we supply. Add some kindling to get your fire started, then add your briquettes, it is that easy.
Tips to Using Briquettes
Briquettes are easy to use, handle, and store. You can follow the tips below to ensure a consistent heat and a long time burn:
- Add kindling to your fireplace or wood burning stove. Kindling is usually made of softwood. Softwood burns hot and quickly, allowing the flames to jump across to your briquettes.
- Add your Ready to Burn certified briquettes on top of the kindling, and then light your kindling.
- If you are using a wood burning stove, you will want to adjust your airflow to minimum, allowing the briquettes to burn for longer, while offering outstanding heat output. If you see your fire going out, adjust the air flow to allow a little more air.
Do Briquettes Give Off a Lot of Smoke and Ash?
All the briquettes we supply are Ready to Burn certified for use in the United Kingdom. This means that they have been laboratory tested to ensure that their moisture content is low. With a low moisture content, our briquettes give off minimal smoke, making them ideal for smokeless areas across the UK.
At the same time, they offer a clean burn. This means less pollutants in the air, less creosote, and yes, less ash. So your cleaning up after a fire is minimal and quick.
Conclusion
You can make your selection from our range of high quality, low moisture, and compacted briquettes to enjoy good heat output and a longer burn this winter season.
