Troubleshooting
Firepit not retaining heat effectively
Ensure the clay is properly seasoned (if applicable) and that there are no cracks. Check that sufficient fuel is being used and that the fire is well-established.
Uneven grilling results
Rotate food frequently. Ensure an even layer of charcoal or evenly distributed wood pieces. Adjust the height of the grill if possible, or reposition food on the grill.
Ash removal is difficult
Wait until the firepit is completely cold. Use a metal scoop or brush to remove ash. For stubborn residue, a slightly damp cloth can be used after initial removal, ensuring the unit is thoroughly dry before relighting.
Cracks appearing in the clay
Minor surface crazing can occur due to heat cycles and is normal for clay. However, significant cracks may indicate the unit has been stressed or damaged. Avoid rapid temperature changes (e.g., pouring water on a hot firepit).
