Clay chimineas are constructed from kiln fired clay with a waterproof glaze that ensures long-lasting durability. They are made and fired in small local factories that help support communities and the economy in Mexico. Kiln-fired to high temperatures, they are used to remove any organic or water-based content in the clay that is in its raw state. This reduces the chances of cracking the clay due to thermal shock.

A large portion of our chimineas are designed with cooking areas that allow you to cook food over the flame. This is a great feature for those that like to cook and entertain at the same time and will add a bit of fun and flavor to dinners with friends and family.

It is recommended to start with a small flame at first when you are using your chiminea. Then gradually increase the size. This is important because the clay acts as a radiator and when you begin with a large flame, the temperature will increase too fast. This can cause cracks in the clay because it isn't accustomed to the heat.

Maintenance

Chimineas are constructed from clay, which is prone to cracking. This is not a major problem, but it could affect the appearance and performance. It is important to maintain the chiminea correctly in order to prevent this. Cleaning it regularly and sealing it with sealant is an integral part of this. It is also essential to properly store your chiminea to avoid damage from the cold and humidity.

One of the main reasons for cracks in a chiminea is poor handling. Chimineas are an enormous piece of fine china, and should be handled carefully. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that can burn or ignite it while it is hot. A dealer once told me that he didn't even guarantee his chimineas for breakage because most of them were broken because of careless handling prior to the time they were fired up once!

The use of water to put out fires is another frequent cause of cracks in Chimineas. Clay is very sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations, and pouring water on the chiminea results in thermal shock and stress fractures. The best way to put out a chiminea is to let the fire die naturally, or to use sand to extinguish it safely.

It is essential to purchase an chiminea with an base. It will be easier to clean and will make it look more attractive in your backyard. Chimineas with no stands can be hard to move, especially when it is windy or rainy. You should also purchase a poker to help you move the logs and a brush for removing soot and ash.

You should "cure" (break in) your chiminea slowly as you first purchase it. Start with small fires, and gradually increase the size of your logs. In this process the clay will become seasoned and more resistant to cracks. A seasoned chiminea will also be more efficient at holding a larger, controlled fire. After three or four small fires, you can begin making larger-sized fires with confidence. It is essential to keep an in mind the size of the fire to ensure it doesn't get out of control.
