PREPARE

• Prepare and gather all material you need to start your fire.

• This may include kindlings, fire lighters, and matches.

• Keep all flammable objects away from children at all times.

• Be aware of any plants and objects surrounding the burning area.

• An organized burning pit is essential for safety.

MEASURE 

• For the first use, start the fire with one briquette, broken in half and layed out in a T shape. 

• Depending on the available space for burning, you can use up to 3 briquettes. 

• It is better to start small and add more briquettes as you need. 

• Briquettes can be broken into smaller pieces.

LIGHT IT UP

• To start the briquettes quicker, you can place firelighters in different positions along with the T shape pile. 

• Place one firelighter under the upper briquette of the T shape pile. 

• Add other three fire lighters at the end of each briquette - one on each side of the lower briquette on the T-shape pile, and another at the end of the upper Briquette.

KEEPING THE FIRE

• Be aware that briquettes can expand whilst burning. 

• It's better to start small and add more pieces of broken briquette as needed. 

• After the briquette has formed amber and heat starts reducing, you can break it with a paddle or firepit poker to release the internal heat of the log. 

• You can break and add small pieces of briquette to keep the fire going for longer.

Briquettes FAQ:

• Q: What exactly is "Wood Briquettes"?

• A: Wood briquettes is one of the most efficient fuel for wood-burning stoves. It is made from sawdust of hardwood which is dried and compressed under high temperatures. It does not contain any glue or chemicals. "NESTRO" briquettes mean that are manufactured with hydraulic presses and "NIELSEN" briquettes with mechanical presses at the expense of high pressure.

• Q: What are the kilos of one bag of briquettes?

• A: Each package weighs 7kg.

• Q: Can I burn them in my stove/fireplace/woodburner?

• A: Wood Briquettes are suitable to burn in any type of stove which is made to burn logs (ordinary wood). Open or closed fireplaces, wood stoves, boilers, wood heaters, etc.

• Q: Do they burn with flame?

• A: Yes, they produce flame-like normal wood.

• Q: How long do they burn?

• A: Burning time depends on many factors like airflow, burner type, etc. But certainly, the efficient burning time is longer than ordinary wood. The only measurable characteristic to compare with other types of fuel is the energy of burning.

• Q: What amount I should order for winter?

• A: This question is very individual. It depends on how cold it is outside, how good are your insulation, windows, and walls, how efficient is your wood burner, what space you have to heat, etc. Based on our experience the average is 750-1000 kg but some houses were ok with 500 kg, some needed 1300-1500. Everything is individual. You can mix them with ordinary wood as well.

• Q: How should I store them?

• A: The only requirement for storage is to keep them away from direct rain. You can store them outside covered and slightly detached from the ground. Or you can store them in your shed, garage, or wood storage. There is no problem storing them inside the house, briquettes don't produce any bad smell or anything like this.

• Q: What space do I need to store them?

• A: As an example to store 1 ton (1000 kg) we need 2 square meters. They are very compact and ergonomic to store.

• Q: Do you really deliver for free? If I live in Pegeia or in the village?

• A: The only requirement for delivery is the road. If you have one, you will get them delivered for free.

• Q: How long does it take from the order to actual delivery?

• A: It depends on the season. In Cyprus everybody order when it starts to snow :) We are doing our best to make deliveries within 1-3 working days. Sometimes we had cases when the order was delivered within 20 minutes because we load an extra amount in our cars in case of an order in the delivery area. But usually, give us a day or so.

• Q: How do I pay?

• A: The payment is cash on delivery or credit card payment during the order

• Q: Is it possible to use them for cooking? For oven?

• A: Briquettes are 100% ecological and don't contain any chemicals. You can use them for cooking.

• Q: Do you have a wholesale special price?

• A: If you are interested in amounts exceeding 5 tons, please call us to discuss the price and delivery options.

• Q: Are they easy to light and burn?

• A: Briquettes are very dry (only 8-12% of humidity) so they light easily. We recommend using the firelighters like the ones for barbeque but you can use small pieces of wood or paper or anything you use for ordinary firewood.

• Q: If I still have questions?

• A: Just call us +357 25 36 66 76 and we answer them with pleasure!

Compared to firewood in Cyprus, there are obvious advantages of this new heating fuel. When you buy wood you might have several problems:

 - "diplocambina" of firewood is unknown volume and weight because you can put it in different ways so you buy air anyway. The quantity of air depends on the honesty of the supplier. The weight is also not a measurement because dry firewood has 20-35% of humidity. Buying 250 kilos of wood you also pay for 50-90 liters of water.

 - you don't know exactly which wood is inside. Most of the time it is mixed so the quality and efficiency vary.

 - when you buy dry wood it means the tree died in the forest. 85% of trees died because of bugs and other insects. 99% of suppliers and vendors don't do any fumigation of wood. Even imported from EU wood most probably don't have any certificates and fumigation because there are no customs within the EU. 

Bringing ordinary firewood to your garden or house you pose yourself to big risk. These "wood-eating" bugs attack your healthy trees and wooden furniture.

Briquettes burn longer. Less smoke and ash (2 kilos of ash per 1000 kilos of briquettes) so you don't need to clean your fireplace often.
