A high surface area allows for better combustion, ensuring a uniform and complete burn while minimizing harmful gases and smoke.  Here are two effective ways to optimize briquette design: 1. Briquettes with holes – The holes improve airflow, leading to better combustion and reduced emissions. 2. Pellet-sized briquettes – Smaller briquettes (about half the size of a mug) burn more efficiently and are easier to handle.

Maureen Webb I have made just over 2000 so far since mid March. They light from paper and last about 45mins in the woodburner. I can make about 70/hour and have, virtually no muck heap. There is no smell when dry or burning. They don't look like the ones in the photo though?
