SHOYEIDOSquare Charcoal (Miyako Sumi) - 48 Piece Box

No sparking or sputtering as with 'quick light' charcoal disks that use gunpowder to accelerate the lighting process. Very clean burn with a faint citrus scent. I use these with Orthodox Christian incense 'pellets'. To light, use small (think cosmetic) tweezers to hold the charcoal bricks over a flame (I use a candle) Allow 30 sec to a minute, moving the edges of one side (which will become the top) over the flame until the edges are starting to turn white, then place in your censer. Allow top to turn completely white before placing first pellet(s). I sometimes will use two incense pellets at a time, and by replacing them every 5 minutes or so, I can use a total of up to five or seven. Each charcoal brick lasts for about 15-20 usable minutes. A part of my normal routine. So glad I found these. The larger, square ones are excellent as well, but these are more economical.

Excellent and the best service!

Please do yourself a favor, do not buy the self lighting charcoal that others sell if you are going to burn loose incense, plant powders and resins. These are the highest quality, have no fragrance and not made with sulfur, saltpeter or any other chemical additives like the self lighting ones. The few extra seconds that these take to light is worth having a scent-free clean and chemical free burn. These small rectangles burn far longer than the charcoal three times it's size that have been chemically treated. Will never buy another type again now I've used these for my precious incense. I'm ordering another box because I have a feeling I'll be burning incense a lot more now that I do not at any point smell charcoal in my home. HIGH QUALITY. The best!

タイトルの通り、ロウソクも横でつける人にはゆっくりと炭起こしするのも、おもむきもあって良いかと。ライターで付けたい人には少ししんどいかな…でも出来なくは無いです。1つ40分燃焼…日常使いには半分に割るくらいで丁度いいんですが、密度が高く固いので綺麗に割るのは難しいかも。品質は良いと思います。長らく使ってますが湿気ることもなく、季節ごとに火にあてる時間を変える必要もなく使いやすいです。手のひらサイズの陶器の香炉で灰の厚さが数cmあっても容器が結構熱くなるので、下には陶器のお皿を敷いて、当然ながら焚いてる時はその場を離れないようにしています。
