The Shichirin can be used in combination with charcoal, Binchotan or briquettes. If you choose charcoal, we recommend you go for 100% natural charcoal of high quality. For example, BBQ Flavour Marabu.
Do you want the real Japanese experience? Then choose Binchotan, the black gold of Japan. This traditionally produced charcoal reaches extremely high temperatures, up to 1000°C! Binchotan burns very quietly and constantly, ideal for long use on the Shichirin. Did you know that Binchotan burns for up to 6 hours?
You can also opt for Quick-Koko briquettes. With these briquettes, your Shichirin is ready for use within a few minutes. These briquettes contain lighter fluid. You simply light them with a match or gas lighter. Once the flames and fire have disappeared, you can start grilling. With the Quick-Koko briquettes, you can enjoy 45-60 minutes at the table. These briquettes are also ideal for a grilling session in the park or at the beach!
