A simple step-by-step for first-time users — applies to typical home and small-commercial use.
- 1Stack 10–15 pillows in a chimney
Quick-light briquettes need less prep than standard cubes — 1 paraffin cube is enough.
- 2Wait 12–15 minutes
Pillow form's higher surface area lights faster than cubes or hexagons.

Spread for direct grilling. Best paired with steaks, burgers, sausages and vegetables.
- 4Cook & serve
Hold direct heat for 60–90 minutes — long enough for a typical grill session.
Storage & shelf life
Store sealed in a dry place, off concrete floors. Avoid direct sunlight and proximity to strong-smelling solvents or fragrances — charcoal adsorbs odours readily. Quick-light formulations remain effective for 12-18 months when stored sealed and dry.
Why wood for this?
Wood charcoal sits between bamboo and coconut on most performance metrics — moderate fixed carbon (70-78%), the longest practical burn time of the three for grilling, and the most familiar smoke and flavour profile for traditional cooking.
