The new way to flame
Coconuts! aFire Incorporation is introducing this amazing resource to the barbeque community. Coconut Charcoal DOES NOT create coconut flavoring, but instead emits an authentic charcoal flavor, perfect for slow grilling and smoking. It is simply a more efficient source of charcoal without fossil coal, sawdust, nitrate or petroleum products. Unlike the common charcoal, Coconut charcoal burns longer, hotter and cleaner than any other charcoal. Instead, Coconut charcoal is made out of all natural products: Coconut shells and natural paste bonder. This combination results in an efficient “RECYCLED” fuel made from leftover biomass of copra (coconut meat). Coconuts are a mainstream product from cosmetic to beverage to cooking condiments. Country that supplies these consumer products is unfortunately stuck with overwhelming large amount of coconut shells in the landfill waiting to rot. This is the reason why we chose Vietnam as our coconut shell resource, Vietnam produces this very extinct species of coconut that is extremely small and provides very sweet juice and little copra. This type of species has extremely dense shells and when made into charcoal briquettes, the hard fiber provides each briquette to emit up to two and a half hour of heat. Not only does the charcoal provides a significant amount of heat, this will allow grillers to achieve the same amount of heat with less briquettes which is equivalent to less CO2 that is released into the ozone layers. This charcoal is also “REUSABLE”, simply suffocate the charcoal after your grill out and reuse it the next time you grill. With little resources to alternative fuels in the market today, we continue to use energy and fuels that is harmful to not only our environment but most importantly harmful to our health. aFire believes that green, natural and stylish lifestyle can be accomplished and we continue to help discovering resources that provides us and our consumers alternative choices that is better for us and our environment.
