Product Information

OPTIMAL MOISTUFRE CONTENT - Our briquettes boast an ideal 8% moisture content, ensuring efficient combustion and consistent heat output. Softwood can produce a very pleasing flame to look at but it will burn very quickly and you will get through a large volume of wood in a very short time. And as long as the top log is as thick as a capercaille, then it should keep you warm all night… Benefiting from the warmth of the fire and melting snow for water.

Sometimes wood briquettes can be confused with charcoal briquettes which give off carbon dioxide as they burn and should not be used indoors. In fact, heat logs have a much higher calorific value than firewood logs, meaning that they release a larger amount of heat when completely burnt. Woodlets Briquettes are certified Ready to Burn and they comply with the Clean Air Act – in fact, they exceed it! Once the briquettes have broken down in size, add a couple more blocks on if you want to keep the fire lit for longer. Not only that, this Pine Mountain log burns with 80% less emissions than cord wood whilst still promoting the ambiance of a traditional or artificial log fire.Do not open the door with a pile of burning briquettes inside - wait for them to burn more and reduce in volume. Look out for high quality wood briquettes that will allow you to break off smaller pieces without crumbling. Keep your fire roaring with our range of great value fire fuels, each offering unique benefits for different applications and needs. Hence, if you can fell a tree, section it and pretty much roll the logs straight into a pit you have dug right next to it, then all the better.

Dry wood not only produces less smoke and air pollution but also provides more heat, more efficiently, than wood that contains a high level of moisture. Softwood kindling is therefore best used to get a fire started, the resinous and fibrous nature of softwood helping it to burn from cold. Willow, for example, likes to grow in wet soils or besides water bodies, therefore the wood from this tree has a high water content and requires longer seasoning.This knowledge would go completely extinct if it weren’t for blogs like this that taught the skill well, and encouraged adventurous souls to go to the woods and give it a go! Thanks to their exceptionally high energy density and convenient no-roll shape, Fire Logs are the perfect middle ground between the massive heat output of Hardwood Heat Logs and the long burn time of Night Briquettes.
