Perfect for our weekend trips
These alcohol blocks are fantastic. They light up instantly with just a match and burn long enough to cook a full meal for two. No weird smell either.

Essential for hot pot lovers
We use these for tabletop hot pot dinners. They provide consistent heat without fluctuating, and the flame is steady. Highly recommend for indoor use with proper ventilation.

Good burn time
The burn time is accurate as described. They are compact and easy to pack. The only reason for 4 stars is that the packaging could be slightly more robust for rough transport.

Great charcoal starter
I mainly use these to get my charcoal grill going. It saves so much time compared to using newspaper. One block is usually enough to get the coals red hot.

Clean and efficient
No soot on my pots and pans! These blocks burn very cleanly. I appreciate that they don't leave a residue behind after they extinguish.

Reliable emergency fuel
Bought these for my emergency kit. They have a long shelf life and take up very little space. Tested one out and it burned cleanly for nearly an hour.
Q: What is the shelf life of these solid alcohol blocks?
A: When stored in their original sealed packaging in a cool, dry place, these blocks have an indefinite shelf life as the solid wax formulation does not evaporate easily.
Q: Are these suitable for starting large charcoal grills?
A: They are excellent for starting charcoal. For very large grills, we recommend using 2 blocks to ensure the charcoal ignites evenly and quickly.
Q: Do these blocks produce any black smoke?
A: No, our premium formula is designed to burn cleanly with minimal to no smoke. If you see black smoke, it may be due to incomplete combustion caused by wind or lack of oxygen.
Q: Can these be used indoors for fondue or hot pot?
A: Yes, they are commonly used for indoor tabletop cooking like hot pot or fondue. However, please ensure the room is well-ventilated and always follow standard fire safety precautions.
Q: How do I extinguish the flame if I need to stop cooking early?
A: You can safely extinguish the flame by covering the burner with a snuffer cap or a non-flammable lid to cut off the oxygen supply. Do not blow on it or use water.
