Accendifuoco e combustibili

Ausili per l’accensione come i bricchetti di cocco o il carbone stesso si trasformano in brace nel braciere: qui trovi tutto ciò che ti serve per accendere il fuoco.

Quante bricchette mi servono per il mio Feuertopf (Dutch Oven)? Questa è probabilmente la domanda più frequente tra chi è alle prime armi con il Feuertopf. Nel forno puoi impostare la temperatura con una manopola; quando cucini all’aperto con le bricchette, è il loro numero a determinare il calore nel Feuertopf.

Important guiding principle for the right number of briquettes

There is an important guiding principle for regulating the temperature in a Firepot: You can always add more coals if the temperature is too low. However, if the pot gets too hot, the food is usually burnt. At the start of your career as an outdoor chef, slowly work your way up to the right temperature and always tend to start with fewer coals.

The right number of briquettes for different cooking methods

You can cook, bake and roast with a Dutch oven.

The distribution of charcoal on and under the Dutch oven changes depending on the type of preparation. The following rules of thumb apply:

When cooking, the heat mainly comes from below: One third of the briquettes are on top and two thirds of the briquettes are under the Dutch oven.
When baking, the heat comes mainly from above: two thirds of the briquettes are on top and one third under the Dutch oven.
When braising, the heat should be evenly distributed: Half of the briquettes go on top and the other half under the pot.
You only need bottom heat for roasting.

The right number of briquettes for the Petromax Atago

A strong colleague of our Dutch Ovens is the Atago. All Dutch ovens up to size ft9 are perfectly enclosed by the Atago and cook with optimum heat yield under the protection of the double-walled construction. Compared to other fire pits, around 20 percent fewer conventional coals are required to reach the desired temperature.

The savings are even greater if you combine the Atago with the air circulation dome: the fibers shield the heat under the hood so that you no longer need any briquettes at the top. Simply place the convection dome on top of the Atago fitted with coals and Dutch Oven and you can cook, bake and braise without coals on the lid!

The right number of briquettes for the different fire pot sizes

The number of briquettes varies depending on the size of the Dutch oven.

Important: Not only the size of the Dutch oven, but also the quality of the coal, the wind and the ambient temperature have an influence on the temperature in the Dutch oven. The table is therefore only a guide. Experience grows with every outdoor adventure!

Petromax Cabix Plus briquettes - Save coal the right way

Per il Dutch Oven e per ogni stampo in ghisa, i bricchetti quadrati sono la scelta ideale: grazie all’ampia superficie di appoggio e alla circolazione dell’aria garantita dal profilo scanalato, la dispersione di calore è inferiore rispetto ai carboni rotondi, che hanno una superficie di appoggio ridotta. Petromax ha sviluppato appositamente Cabix Plus, un carbone di cocco con una durata di combustione fino a quattro ore.

Con Cabix Plus ti servono circa il 15-20% di bricchetti in meno!
