Clay chimineas can be constructed from kiln-fired or kiln-baked clay and coated with a waterproof coating to ensure durability. They are manufactured and fired in small local factories that help support communities and the economy of Mexico. They are fired at high temperatures in order to eliminate any organic material or water in the raw clay. This decreases the risk of cracking in the clay as a result of thermal shock.
Many of our larger models have a cooking area where you can 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 flavour to the meals you have with your family and friends.
It is best to start with a small fire when you first start using your chiminea. Then gradually increase the size. It is crucial to start small as the clay acts as an electric radiator. If you begin with a larger size, the temperature will increase quickly. This can cause cracks in the clay because it isn't used to the heat.

Maintenance
Chimineas made from clay, are prone to cracking. While this is typically an issue of minor importance, it can affect the appearance and function of the chiminea. It is crucial to maintain the chiminea correctly in order to prevent this. Cleaning it frequently and sealing it with sealant is a part of this. It is also essential to properly store your chiminea to prevent damage from extreme temperatures and moisture.
One of the main causes for cracks in a chiminea is poor handling. A chiminea is like a huge piece of china, and should be handled carefully. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that can cause it to be burned or firing it when it's hot. A dealer once told me that he couldn't even warrant his chimineas for breakage because they were most likely to break because of poor handling before they were fired up once!
Using water to extinguish fires is another frequent reason for cracks in chimineas. Clay is very sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations, and pouring water on the chiminea can cause stress fractures and thermal shock. The best way to put out a chiminea is to let the fire die naturally or to use sand to extinguish it in a safe manner.
It is important to buy an
cast aluminum chiminea with an base. It will be simpler to clean, and will look better in your garden. Chimineas without stands can be difficult to move, particularly when the weather is windy or rainy. You should also purchase an instrument to help move the logs, and a brush to remove soot and ash.
When you first purchase your chiminea, it needs to be "cured" (broken into) slowly. Start with small fires and increase the size of your logs gradually. In this period, the clay will become more resistant to cracks and more seasoned. A seasoned chiminea will also hold a larger and more controlled fire. After three or four small flames, you will be capable of starting a large fire with confidence. It is crucial to keep an in mind the size of the fire to ensure that it doesn't get out of control.
