Briquettes Can Help Keep The House Warm, And The Heating Off This Winter
This means, you use fewer firewood logs to get your home up to temperature, so there’s less need to re-stock the log store as often, and helps to resist turning on the central heating for longer.
Our team have been using briquettes for years, so to cut through the jargon, here’s what we’ve learned:

Why We Love Burning Briquettes
Due to their high calorific value, thanks to the incredible compression – briquettes of all kinds, contain within them a huge amount of heat potential, it’s all about how you want to use that to fit your needs.
Briquettes can burn intensely, producing a far higher heat output than firewood alone, if you add them to an existing fire, and keep the air flows open.
This will make them behave more like firewood, they won’t last overnight in this way, but it means you can leave the fire to burn intensely for around 2hrs without tending, rather than every 45mins with wood alone.
Briquettes can also burn low and slow, smouldering briquettes by adding them to a dying fire is the best way to maintain an ambient temperature over long periods (overnight), the embers will be all that are left after around 8hrs, so you can add kindling and re-light the fire quickly the next day.
Burning this way, requires you to limit airflow to a minimum level, in so doing, this can create a layer of black residue on your stove door, this is due to the lower temperature burn and nothing to worry about. It wipes off easily with warm water, or you can burn it off by re-lighting the fire with firewood.
