BBQ Charcoal

Moisture

Moisture is the water content of charcoal, measured by ASTM D1762; higher moisture slows ignition and lowers usable heat.

Briquette mix is produced by blending milled coconut shell charcoal powder with a natural, additive-free, food-grade tapioca (cassava) starch binder, low in sulfur. No chemical accelerants or fillers are used in any grade.

Coconut shell charcoal briquettes leave a white-silver ash after a complete burn, and the ash residue itself is quantified as ash content by proximate analysis under ASTM D1762 or ISO 1171. Colour observed in a tray is an indicator only; the reported figure always comes from the laboratory method, stated on the certificate of analysis.
