2. Do not use pellets, chipped wood products, or sappy wood to burn in the Cr90.
3. NEVER USE ANY TYPE OF ACCELERANT, SUCH AS GAS, PARAFFIN, LIGHTER FLUID,

have removed the embers, please clean the refractory brick by using a brush to dust it
down and remove any residue from the embers.
• Beware when disposing of ashes before they have fully cooled down (natural cooling can
take several hours).
• It is perfectly acceptable to turn the refractory brick over between uses.
• DO NOT USE THE REFRACTORY BRICK WHEN WET AS IT ABSORBS MOISTURE,
CAUSING IT TO CRACK (WHICH DOES NOT DIMINISH THE BRICK’S ABILITY TO COOK).
