TIPS & TRICKS
Direct and indirect heat
Using the coal insert, it is possible to place embers or a fire directly below your grill grate, or at the
sides of the grill for indirect heat, when you are grilling larger items.
Lighting and stoking techniques using wood
Behind every successful fire is a good layer of embers. This can be formed quickly by using 2-4
firelighting briquettes under 1 – 2 kg dry kindling in the middle of the firepit. Kindling should be
stacked in a cross and the stack lit in the middle with firelighters. You can use a blower pipe, such
as that built into the Morsø Ash scraper, to blow on the embers and give the fire an extra boost.
When the initial fire has burnt down, break up the embers into pieces with the Morsø Ash scraper
and add more firewood. To avoid too much smoke, it helps to lay on less timber more often, and at
the same time to ensure that the bark on the timber faces upwards.
Lighting and stoking techniques using coal
Load a suitable amount of briquettes or coal into the grill starter. Lay lightly crumpled paper or
firelighters below the grate of the grill starter. Place the grill starter on a non-combustible underlay
and light the paper or firelighters.
When all briquettes or coal are glowing, spread them over the base of the grill. The grill starter
becomes very hot, so it is important to use gloves when tipping out the coal. You will get quicker and
more uniform lighting by using the grill starter without lighter fluid or firelighters.
Lighting time: approx. 15 minutes.
NB!! Always use dry, clean and untreated timber in the firepit.
Logs should be stored under a roof for no less than 1 year, and preferably 2 years, exposed
to the wind. Logs should be split as soon as possible after felling if they are to dry quickly.
The wood can be used when its moisture content is below 20 %.
Never use driftwood, as it is usually very salty and can therefore ruin the oven. Impregnated
and painted timber and chipboard emit poisonous smoke and vapours, and must
therefore not be used as firewood. Pine and similar species of resinous timber develop
poisonous gases when burning, and should be therefore not be used in connection with
food preparation.
REPAIR KIT
Surface scratches and rust formation will appear with use. Such small damages are easily repaired
using the supplied repair/maintenance kit. Maintenance of the oven is recommended 1-2 times
annually. See the maintenance video at morsoe.com.
