Big K Compressed Saw Dust Heat Logs, Pack Of 12-14 100% Natural Heat Logs

Product Information

By far, our favorite pressed logs are the denser heat-pressed logs. Made from reclaimed hardwood sawdust, these logs are formed with heat and very high pressure to make a super-dense, high-BTU, and long-burning fuel. Eco Logs burn more efficiently than standard logs. They contain almost no moisture, which allows them to release heat faster than conventional logs when burned. What’s more, because a smaller amount of each log’s weight is made up of water, eco logs can burn for longer than traditional firewood logs (there are obviously a lot of variables here but we are assuming a common hardwood of the same weight, for example Ash, seasoned to 20% moisture.

If the heating has been on and I have hot water to spare, I use warm water to soak the paper after only about 5mins you can use the paint mixer and it will be in pulp in a few minutes, if i have cold water about an 30 mins will have it softened up and will not take long to be in pulp. Before you pull out your fireplace tools, you may still have lingering inquiries about the best fire logs for your situation. Take a look at these frequently asked questions and their succinct answers for the topnotch intel you may need prior to purchasing a fire log. Q. Are fire logs toxic? If you want a fuel that has very low levels of moisture (like eco logs do) but still has the appearance and smell of traditional firewood, you should consider using kiln dried logs. While kiln dried logs aren’t quite as efficient their engineered counterpart, they are more efficient than air-dried firewood logs. Kiln dried logs represent a reasonable compromise between regular seasoned logs and eco logs.If you’re used to standard firewood, you’ll notice a huge difference in the heat output from compressed saw dust heat logs. However, if you’re used to kiln dried logs, you might not see much difference in terms heat produced. Both heat logs and kiln dried logs are good options for heating your home. Disadvantages of heat logs You can’t buy loose Duraflame produces a wide range of fireplace products, including this 2.5-pound fire log, which is about half the size of some of the other products we tested. We burned this one in an old wood-burning stove that we use to heat a large shop. It was easy to light by following the instructions: folding out the seam on the paper wrapper and then lighting it along the seam using a single match. The entire log was on fire within 5 minutes, and it burned for just over an hour.

The availability of heat pressed logs seems to be regional, with most options available on the West Coast or the Pacific Northwest. Our favorite heat pressed logs include: Break out the weenies, s’mores supplies, or other favorite campfire treats! The Enviro-Log is made from compressed cardboard and food-grade waxes, and the wrapper claims the product to be suitable for cooking, so we toasted a few marshmallows over its warm flames. Commercially manufactured pressed sawdust logs, a.k.a. “Presto” logs or “fire logs,” can be a great source of fuel for your small stove. Manufactured logs tend to have relatively high BTU content, require no curing, and are safe to transport across long distances.The small sawdust log press capacity is between 150 kg and 300 kg per hour. It is screw type briquetting machine. Except for sawdust, it can press other biomass waste also. The biomass briquettes within the inner hole could burn directly, or be carbonized into charcoal. The difference between machine-made charcoal and raw charcoal is not much. A. How To Make a Fire Log – Extrusion

Very cost-effective: Due to their low moisture content and high density, wood briquettes contain a lot more energy than an equivalent volume of regular firewood. As a result, one briquette is the equivalent to using three or four traditional logs. I've got a Stainless steel hand driven cider press which presses the juice out of apples to make what is called the "Cake" (more compost) with the juice extracted, and it also make the Cheese by extracting the Whey water from the curdled milk. More you press out the water the harder the cheese. To find a use for the large amount of sawdust produced from wood turning sawing firewood etc, the 2 choices had was to dunp / compost it or burn it. The screw-type sawdust log press has strict requirements on the size and moisture of the raw materials, usually, the optimal size is within 3 mm, and the moisture does not exceed 12%. So most of the raw materials need to be crushed and dried. Crushing So these are the things to consider when you’re thinking about buying heat logs for your fire. They are certainly environmentally-friendly, have a fantastic heat output and are cleaner than burning firewood logs, but you can’t buy them loose and they won’t have the same realistic feel as natural wood. Why not try mixing heatlogs with kiln dry logs?This creosote-cleaning fire log is advertised to burn with 80 percent fewer emissions than cordwood. The lighting process is slightly different than with the other logs we tested. Rather than placing the Creosote Buster in the grate and lighting it, we started a regular fire with wood, and after 30 minutes, we set the Creosote Buster on top of the burning pile. It took about 5 minutes to catch fire fully and burned for just over 1 hour. The raw materials with irregular shapes and sizes are conveyed into the crusher and crushed into particles no more than 3-5 mm. It is a hammer mill usually, and the material is sent out by air.
