Our seasoned hardwood logs are high-quality locally forested hardwood logs including ash, oak and birch. These are dried all summer in our barns and all are cut to approximately 9.5 inches/250mm. However, we can cut to larger sizes – call our office on 01403 783379 and select option 2 to find out more. The moisture content of our seasoned logs is 20% or less.
Our briquettes are not made on site.
In summary the comparison between the wooden logs and briquettes is:-
- Briquettes are lighter in weight and cheaper and easier to store and handle.
- The moisture content of briquettes can be as low as 10% while the moisture content of the seasoned logs can be +/- 22%.
- Briquettes burn quicker and provide a better heat output and burn cleaner and emission free too.
- Briquettes start to burn more quickly than logs.
- Briquettes leave less ash after burning.
Although the wood briquettes hold more advantages over seasoned logs, our logs are uniformly cut pieces with more or less the same moisture content and provide a good heat output as compared to the normal logs.
