Collection: Heat Logs & Briquettes

Heat logs and briquettes are compressed wood fuels designed to burn efficiently and produce consistent heat. Unlike traditional firewood, they have very low moisture content and a uniform shape, allowing for a more controlled and longer-lasting burn. Their higher density means they can produce more heat per volume than standard logs.

The difference between heat briquettes and slow burn briquettes is how they release heat and how long they burn. Heat briquettes, made from kiln dried woodchips with a small amount of bark, provide quicker, more responsive heat and burn for up to 4 hours depending on airflow. In contrast, slow burn briquettes are made from compressed bark and release heat gradually, burning for up to 6–8 hours under certain conditions. In summary, heat briquettes deliver faster, higher heat, while slow burn briquettes provide longer-lasting, steady warmth.

The best briquettes for a wood burner depend on how you use your fire. Heat Briquettes are ideal for quick heat and active use, while Slow Burn Briquettes are better for maintaining steady heat over longer periods. Choosing the best briquettes depends on whether you prioritise heat intensity or burn duration.

Wood briquettes burn longer than standard firewood due to their high density and low moisture content. Heat briquettes typically burn for up to 3–4 hours, providing strong, responsive heat. Slow burn briquettes can last much longer, often up to 6–8 hours, making them ideal for overnight or sustained heating. Burn time will vary depending on airflow and appliance.
