Blacksmithing and Heating Coal 25lbs

Great for camping. Burns clean in the tent heater/stove, and it lasts through the night, but not for cooking

So far so good! I’m hoping that it will keep mice away from coming into my apartment.

This coal is hard to light and keep lit but I have discovered a way to keep it lit easily. Just put kindling on it and then wood and light it. The wood gets the coal to burn but getting the coal to smelting heat requires bellows and sometimes and blower machine to help you but in a small stove to heat your room, a bellow will do. Note: burning coal in small amounts like in your stove or forge is safe and no one cares but in massive amounts like in a power plant, too much and bad for the environment. Just have proper ventilation or you will have serious problems.

I switched from wood coal to this type in order to reach higher temps. My heating time has decreased and I can reach a yellow orange with less effort. I also smelt metals and a more efficient fuel was needed.

Worked great had no problems, used for forging in coal forge got ten times hotter than charcoal great product would buy again

Great coal, burns hot, cokes nicely, fast shipping too! You can't go wrong!

Just recently got into smithing, currently I use a modified grill for my forge and I have been able to form, normalize and heat treat five knives and have use about 15 lbs of this coal. Definitely get plenty hot, melted off a few tips by accident. Last much longer than wood charcoal. It does smoke up a bit at first, my forge is uot doors so it is barely noticeable. You will have to pick out the glass like deposits it makes every do often. Below are a couple of my projects

Box could use more packing tape. It arrived broken open and 3+ lbs had fallen out so, $6+ of coal missing. Product looks top notch, packaging was poor. IOW… Premium priced yet subpar packaging I will try Tractor supply next time I need coal.
