7. PRACTICAL TIPS
7.1. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is it possible to incorporate the Shichirin in an outdoor kitchen?
The Shichirin is an excellent model for outdoor use. With the fuel binchotan the
Shichirin can reach temperatures around 1000°C. It is therefore not advisable
to build it in.
Are the stainless steel air vents of the Shichirin operable when in use?
The air vents in the Shichirin are made of stainless steel and are therefore very
heat resistant. In combination with binchotan, however, it is always advisable
to operate these slides carefully due to the heat that is released.
Which fuels are suitable for the Shichirin?
The Quick-Koko briquettes can be lit within two minutes. These briquettes con-
tain a little bit of fire accelerator and burning time of an hour.
We also have the sustainable charcoal “binchotan”. This is made from a hun-
dred year old oak which is baked at a high temperature. The binchotan has a
very high density and reaches temperatures of up to 1000°C. In addition, the
average burning time is 4-5 hours.
Finally there is Hexagon Sawdust. This is a 100% natural product with a high
burn time. It doesn’t burn as long as binchotan, but that makes it a bit cheaper.
Hexagon however does reach a very high temperature and is also easier to light
than binchotan.
What are the different types of Binchotan?
Binchotan Maitiew - 5 kg: Maitiew has a carbon percentage of 96-98.
The charcoal bed can reach temperatures of 1000°C to 1200°C. The total burn-
ing time of this species is on average 6 hours. There are no chemicals added
during the production process, so it is an authentic process. Because of this
method of production, there is no smoke or taste of the binchotan. The ash
content amounts to an average of 1.5%.
Binchotan Konia - 7 kg: Konia has a carbon percentage of 96-98%.
The charcoal bed can reach temperatures of 1000°C to 1100°C. The total burn-
ing time of this species is on average 5 hours. No chemicals are added during
the production process, hence it is an authentic process. Because of this method
of production, there is no smoke or taste of the binchotan. The ash content
amounts to an average of 1.5%.
