I pondered as to how this might differ from other charcoal starters...Decided to take the plunge and was not disappointed...WOW...this thing is like a blow torch...charcoal was well alight in 5 mins and the heat coming from the unit was amazing...If you're giving this device thought...Don't...it's a game changer to your bbq experience and you won't look back..
Store owner replied: Hi Chris, Love this. That “WOW” moment is exactly what we designed it for. Less than ten minute ignition, serious heat output, and a unit that makes you wonder how you ever BBQ’d without it.
A game changer for my husband who loves to bbq and smoke on the weekends. I think I heard him audibly gasp at how quickly the coals came to temp and he had thanked me a few times since receiving it. A perfect gift for anyone who loves to bbq
Store owner replied: Hi Tawny, We love hearing this. That moment when the coals roar to life in minutes is exactly why we built it, and knowing it made his weekends even better means everything.
It looks and feels like it's going to last a lifetime, a premium product that I won't have to replace. As my little cheapo chimney rivets are about to fall through, I thought I'd give this a try. I tried the Pyralit with the starters inside (I used to do them below the unit). The Pyralit was a little larger than I expected, and the wide base and narrow top make so much sense, and absolutely got the coal going much faster, due to the shape, but also the very generous air holes everywhere. I love the long slits vs small round holes. Huge airflow, the angles channel the heat to get all the coals noticeably faster than my previous cheap unit. I have no negatives to say, all round great products, and I look forward to having this chimney a very long time. It's also flashy and will stand out at gatherings over the other bbq bros types. Absolutely love that this is Australian design and made. Very Happy.
Store owner replied: Hi Karl, We hope to use this for many bbq seasons and years to come!
This is one of those purchases you don't think you need until you have it. Cooking 3 nights a week on my barby now that I can light the coals, prep the meat, come back and throw the coals in the bbq. It does take about 5 minutes to heat the bbq and grill once deposited but it's still cuts my cooking time in half!
It’s a extremely well crafted and really fires up! Ha pardon the pun! I’ve called it Ragnar!!
I used the OG Pyralit for my Binchotan. It's a very dense charcoal from Japan. It just didn't get going. It was very frustrating. I really want it to work, as it is such a beautiful thing and a pleasure to hold. Very well built. But perhaps not for Binchotan? I'll try again. Maybe with a new technique. Anyone else out there using the Pyralit for Binchotan?
Pyralit Ignition Unit – Charcoal in Under 10 Minutes
Store owner replied: Hi Alf! Thank you for your honest review! We have not personally tested the ignition unit with binchotan charcoal. We hope you figure out a technique to get it going!
Havent used it yet but quality looks great. Much heavier than expected.
Wow - this unit is built like a high precision engine. It looks amazing, the build quality is outstanding and my charcoal is ready to go within 10 minutes. My only regret is that I didn’t buy one six months ago.
Great product so far
Will outlast any other chimney tried previously. Lights charcoal with aggression!!!
My husband loves it! It works perfectly - We don’t wait hours to eat. Barbecue heats up so quickly! Thank you so much. Kim
Extremely well engineered, solid and rugged. Paired it with the Catch Plate, and later added the Pyralit adjustable torch buying an industrial gas Tradeflame cartridge to partner it, giving me controllable high heat. I already have about 10kg of Mallee Root Charcoal to work with.
Store owner replied: Hi Stephen, Thank you for backing the full Pyralit system. When you pair the Ignition Unit, Catch Plate and Adjustable Torch with quality Mallee Root Charcoal, you get fast ignition, controlled high heat and a setup built to perform season after season.
It’s perfect
Store owner replied: Hi Matthew, Thank you for the kind words!
This is a game changer! It will get your charcoal lit in minutes! Best bbq accessory i have bought. Highly recommend
Store owner replied: Hi Roderic, This is what we love to hear. Minutes to light, serious heat, and a tool you will use every single cook!
Absolutely love this. Not only does it get you cooking super quick,it looks mint!
Store owner replied: Hi Christopher, Appreciate the positive review.
Enjoy this item
Store owner replied: Hi Penny, Glad to hear that you are enjoying the item
So good just two fire lighter pieces & ready in around 15 minutes. Works a treat
Store owner replied: Wow, that's pretty quick for using two starter blocks!
High quality, lights charcoal very quickly and best of all it's Aussie made!
