Clay chimineas can be made of kiln-fired clay and coated with a waterproof coating to ensure long-lasting. They are manufactured and fired in small local factories that aid communities and the economy of Mexico. Kiln-fired at high temperatures, they are used to remove any organic or water content from the raw clay. This decreases the chance of cracking the clay due to thermal shock.

Many of our larger models include the option of cooking areas where you can grill food over the flame. This is an excellent feature for those that like to cook and entertain at the same time and will add a bit of fun and flavour to the meals you have with family and friends.

It is best to start with a small fire at first when you are using your chiminea. Then gradually increase the size. This is because the clay acts as a radiator, and if you start with a large fire the temperature will rise too quickly. This could cause cracks in the clay since it is not accustomed to the temperature.

Maintenance

Chimineas are made from clay, which is susceptible to cracking. While this is typically a minor problem but it can affect the appearance and function of the chiminea. To avoid this, it is important to maintain your chiminea properly. Cleaning it regularly and sealing it with sealant is a part of this. It is also essential to properly store your chiminea to avoid damage from extreme temperatures and moisture.

Handling with care is among the most frequent causes cracks in Chiminea. A chiminea is like an enormous piece of fine china, and it should be handled with care. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that is likely to ignite, or firing it while it is hot. One dealer I spoke to said he did not warrant his chimineas against breakage, because they are often damaged by careless handling before they were fired!

The use of water to put out the flame is another common cause of cracks in Chimineas. Clay is extremely sensitive to sudden temperature changes, and pouring water on the chiminea results in stress fractures and thermal shock. The best way to put out a chiminea is to allow the fire die naturally or to make use of sand to put it out safely.

It is crucial to buy an chiminea with an base. It will be simpler to clean and make it look more attractive in your backyard. Chimineas without stands can be hard to move, especially if it's windy or rainy. You should also buy a poker to assist you in manipulate the logs and a brush to get rid of soot and ash.

You must "cure" (break in) your chiminea slowly after you first buy it. Start with small fires and gradually increase the size of your logs. As time passes the clay will become more resistant to cracks and more seasoned. A seasoned chiminea is also able to provide a bigger and more controlled fire. After three or four small flames, you'll be in a position to start a large fire with confidence. It is essential to keep an watch on the size of the fire to ensure that it doesn't get out of control.
