Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes. Roasties are made from natural coffee husks and beeswax with no petroleum, paraffin, or synthetic additives. They burn clean, which means they won’t introduce chemical smells or affect the taste of food when used for grilling, smoking, or charcoal cooking.
-
Roasties are made from just two natural ingredients: recycled coffee husks and organic beeswax. The coffee husks come from coffee roasting byproducts that would otherwise go to waste, and the beeswax helps create a consistent, long-lasting burn.
-
Traditional fire starters like lighter fluid can leave behind chemical residue that affects flavor. Roasties are designed to burn clean and odorless, so they do not impact the taste of food when used for grilling or smoking.
-
Each fire starter cube burns for approximately 10+ minutes, providing enough sustained heat to ignite wood, charcoal, or kindling even in outdoor conditions.
-
Roasties are designed to be water-resistant and perform well in damp or unpredictable outdoor environments. While they should not be submerged in water, they can still light and burn effectively after exposure to moisture.
-
Roasties are designed for a wide range of fire-starting situations, including camping, backpacking, fire pits, grilling, charcoal BBQs, smokers, and emergency kits. They are especially useful for situations where portability and reliability matter.
-
Simply place one cube under your kindling, charcoal, or firewood and light it with a match or lighter for 3-5 seconds. Allow it to burn for a few seconds to establish flame, then build your fire normally.
-
