Clay chimineas are made of fired clay that has been kiln-fired and coated with a waterproof glaze that ensures durability. They are manufactured and fired in small local factories to help aid in the development of the communities and economy of Mexico. They are kiln fired at high temperatures to remove any organic material or water in the clay. This minimizes the risk of cracking the clay due to thermal shock.

Many of our larger Chimineas come with an area for cooking that allows you to grill food on the fire. This is a fantastic feature for those that like to cook and entertain simultaneously and will add a bit of fun and flavor to the meals you have with friends and family.

When you first begin to use your chiminea it is always best to build an initial small fire before you slowly increase the size of the fire. This is because the clay acts as a radiator. Moreover, if you start with a large fire the temperature will rise too quickly. This could cause cracks in the clay because it isn't accustomed to the heat.

Maintenance

Chimineas, which are made from clay, are prone to cracking. This is not a major problem, but it could affect the appearance and functionality. It is important to keep the chiminea in good condition in order to prevent this. Cleaning it regularly and sealing it with sealant is an integral part of this. Store your chiminea correctly to avoid damage caused by extreme cold and moisture.

Careless handling is one of the main causes of cracks in a Chiminea. Chimineas are like a large piece of fine china, and should be handled with care. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that can burn it or firing it while it's hot. One dealer I spoke to said he did not warrant his chimineas against breakage, since they were frequently broken by careless handling even after they were fired up!

Another reason for cracks on chimineas can be caused by using water to extinguish the fire. Clay is very sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations and pouring water on the chiminea can cause stress fractures and thermal shock. The best method to extinguish the fire in a chiminea would be to let it die naturally, or use sand.

It is important to buy a chiminea that comes with an base. It will be simpler to clean and make it more attractive in your backyard. Chimineas without stands can be difficult to move, especially if it's rainy or windy. You should also purchase a poker to help you 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 then gradually increase the size of your logs. As you progress the clay will become seasoned and more resistant to cracks. A seasoned cast aluminium chiminea will also hold a larger and more controlled fire. After three or four small flames, you'll be able to start a full-size fire with confidence. It is essential to keep an an eye on the size of the fire to ensure that it does not become out of control.
