Nestro briquettes are made from high quality softwood sawdust that is hot pressed into a unique shape using an industrial press rod. Set a Nestro softwood log to one side and you’ll see that it’s almost exactly the shape of a fireplace. This is not a coincidence. This vented cylindrical shape helps create a chimney effect in the trunk itself, increasing the amount of air that passes through the trunk. This creates more flames and therefore more heat.
Each Nestro Briquette weighs two kilograms and emits an incredible amount of heat. Because of this, you may not always want to use a full Nestro briquette at once. Fortunately, portioning is easy as each log is designed to break easily with bare hands. Just apply a little pressure.
