The point of compressing them is moisture: Hotmax put theirs at 7%, against the 20–25% of seasoned hardwood, and dry fuel is what turns wood into heat rather than into steam and smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat that buys in practice is 17–18 MJ\/kg of energy and around 3% ash. They light without firelighters if you stand two or three thin discs in a tent over a screw of paper, and they stack indoors rather than needing a log store. The 20kg bag is the larger of the two sizes Hotmax bag them in.\u003c\/p\u003e \u0026lt;\u0026gt; \u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e100% recycled natural softwood dust and wood particles, with no additives of any kind.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMoisture content 7%, against 20–25% for seasoned hardwood.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEnergy output 17–18 MJ\/kg.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAround 3% ash residue, so there is markedly less to clear out between fires.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLights with paper alone — no firelighters and no kindling needed.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWoodsure Ready to Burn certified, the scheme UK regulations point at for domestic wood fuel.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u0026lt;\u0026gt; \u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWood-burning stoves, multi-fuel stoves and open fires.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOutdoor fire pits, chimineas and wood-fired ovens.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHouseholds with nowhere to season and store split logs.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnyone who wants a consistent fuel rather than a variable load of cordwood.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNot a smokeless fuel and not legal on an open fire in a smoke control area — Pagan Smokeless Coal is the product for that.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u0026lt;\u0026gt; \u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStand two or three thin discs in a tent shape over a couple of screws of dry paper, and light the paper.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdd whole logs once the tent has caught and the fire is drawing.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGive it plenty of air while it establishes, then damp down as you would with any wood fuel.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStore the bag indoors or under cover.
