Clay chimineas can be made of kiln-fired clay and coated with a waterproof coating to ensure their durability. They are manufactured and fired in small local factories that support communities and the economy of Mexico. They are fired kiln-fired at high temperatures in order to eliminate any organic material or water in the clay. This minimizes the possibility of cracking in the clay as a result of thermal shock.

A large portion of our chimineas are designed with a cooking area that allows you to grill food over the fire. This is a great feature for those that like to cook and entertain simultaneously. It will add a bit of fun and flavour to your dinners with friends and family.

It is recommended to start with a small fire when you first start using your chiminea. Then gradually increase the size. It is important to start small because the clay acts like an electric radiator. If you start large, the temperature will increase quickly. The clay can crack as it's not able to absorb the heat.

Maintenance

Chimineas are made from clay, which is susceptible to cracking. This is not a major problem, but it could cause a negative impact on the appearance and performance. To avoid this from happening, it's important to maintain your chiminea properly. This includes cleaning it regularly and applying a sealant that is protective. It is also important to properly store your chiminea to prevent damage from extreme temperatures and moisture.

One of the main reasons for cracks in a ceramic chiminea can be due to careless handling. Handle a chiminea with care, as it is a huge piece of fine china. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that can cause it to be burned or firing it while it's hot. A dealer once told me that he didn't even guarantee his chimineas against breakage since the majority of them broke because of poor handling before they were fired up once!

The use of water to put out the flame is another common cause of cracks in chimineas. Clay is prone to sudden temperature changes and pouring hot water over a clay chiminea could cause stress cracks and thermal shock. The best method to end the fire in a chiminea is to let it die naturally or employ sand.

It is important to buy a chiminea that comes with an base. It will be simpler to clean and make it more attractive in your backyard. Chimineas without stands are difficult to move, particularly if the weather is stormy or rainy. You should also purchase an instrument to help move the logs and a brush for removing the ash and soot.

You must "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 period the clay will become more resistant to cracks and more seasoned. A seasoned chiminea will also hold a larger and more controlled fire. After three or four small flames, it is possible to be capable of starting a large fire with confidence. However, it is still important to monitor the size of your fire, and not allow it to get too big or out of control.
