Product Information

Smouldering fuel to try to extend burn time is bad for your stove, flue and the environment due to unburned particulate matter in the smoke. The coffee grounds are collected from cafes, offices, factories, universities etc throughout the UK, repurposing a waste product. The accolade that truly marked Coffee Logs’ success was their triumph in the Virgin Media Business Voom 2016 competition. Custom made Eco Roasters are used to turn the Coffee Bio-Fuel into the heat energy needed to roast delicious fresh coffee beans. They’re a true example of circular energy use, where waste products that would ordinarily go in the bin are turned into a fuel source.

Instead of being thrown into the bin, coffee grounds could now be sent to Bio-Bean and recycled into a briquette fuel. The next stage of the process once the grounds have been collected, is to sieve out any foreign objects and dry the coffee grounds. Therefore burning Coffee Logs in a Smoke Control Area, regardless of whether it’s a stove or open fire, is not permitted by law. Each log will burn for around an hour before additional logs need to be added to the burner or stove. They can be used instead of or alongside dry wood logs and, in fact, burn hotter than kiln-dried wood due to their naturally high calorific value.However, lead times in peak season can extend to 5 working days, sometimes longer in extreme weather.

Over time we have built up a great reputation for supplying the best wood and kindling in the county.They responded by saying they have third party UKAS-accredited lab testing, stating the chlorine content of a Coffee Log (10% moisture) is 0. I usually fill the bottom of the pan with a generous amount of molasses, but I ran low for this last batch. Break - We strongly recommend you break these briquettes in half (or less for very small stoves) because they do expand whilst burning and you don't want them to overfill the fire. Made of recycled spent coffee grounds, Coffee Logs are designed for use in wood-burning and multi-fuel stoves.

Once you have enough briquettes place them in your wood burner and light your fire as normal and add briquettes as required.The coffee logs do have a tendency to crumble and break apart, so be extra careful we stoking the fire. We welcome the government’s move as a significant step in the right direction for reducing reliance on carbon-heavy fossil fuels and cutting emissions contributing to climate change. We would recommend using Kiln dried or well seasoned logs on a regular basis but we found the coffee logs to be a nice alternative should you fancy something different.
