They are manufactured and fired in small local factories to help aid in the development of the communities and economy of Mexico. They are fired kiln-fired at high temperatures to eliminate any organic or water-based material in the clay. This minimizes the risk of the clay cracking due to thermal shock.

A lot of our larger models come with an area for cooking where you can cook food over the flame. This is an excellent option for those who want to cook and entertain simultaneously. It will add an extra element of enjoyment and flavor to the meals you have with family and friends.

When you first begin to use your chiminea, it is best to start with an initial small fire before you slowly increase the size of the fire. This is because the clay acts as a radiator, and if you start with a large fire the temperature will rise too fast. The clay can crack as it isn't used to the heat.

Maintenance

Chimineas are constructed from clay, which is prone to cracking. Although this is usually not a major issue but it can affect the appearance and functionality of the chiminea. To avoid this from happening, it's important to keep your chiminea in good condition. Cleaning it regularly and sealing it with sealant is a part of this. It is also essential to store your chiminea properly to avoid damage due to extreme temperatures and moisture.

One of the main causes for cracks in a chiminea can be due to careless handling. Be careful when handling a chiminea since it is a large piece fine china. Avoid dropping it or not letting it touch anything that could ignite or fire it when it is hot. A dealer once told me he couldn't even warrant his chimineas against breakage since the majority of them broke because of careless handling prior to the time they were fired once!

Another reason for cracks on chimineas is using water to put out the fire. Clay is very sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations, and pouring water on a indoor chiminea causes thermal shock and stress fractures. The best way to put out the chiminea is to let the fire die naturally, or to use sand to extinguish it in a safe manner.

If you are purchasing an newest chiminea, it is important to pick one that has an accompanying stand. It will be easier to clean, and it will look nicer in your garden. Chimineas with no stands can be hard to move, especially if it's rainy or windy. You should also purchase a poker to help you manipulate the logs and a brush for removing the ash and soot.

When you first purchase your chiminea it must be "cured" (broken into) slowly. Start with small fires and then gradually increase the size of your logs. As time passes the clay will become more resistant to cracks and more seasoned. A seasoned chiminea is more efficient at holding a larger, well-controlled fire. After three or four small flames, you will be in a position to start a large fire with confidence. But, it's essential to be aware of the size of your fire and to not allow it to get too large or out of control.
