Firewood (regular)

As per the product concept, I put four sticks of firewood in the firelighter and tried cooking. I was impressed that it lit in one go, just as the name suggests.
It's really hard to make fine kindling... the finer the firewood, the less cleanly it splits and the more time it takes 🌀 I'm so happy to be freed from that effort!
We've only had a wood stove for two years, and we were still struggling with how to stack the firewood in the furnace, but the blocks of the Firewood One can be moved one by one, so it was designed to support firewood of any shape.
Before using Shiniichippo, I used to stack firewood in a well, but I couldn't stack it properly and had to re-stack it many times. However, Shiniichippo supports the firewood well, so stacking firewood has become much easier.
My wood stove life has improved. I'm sure it will be a great help this season!

The season has finally started.
This year's first fire...I seriously didn't need any kindling!

I also like the straightforward name ✨ Firewood One Shot.
My impression after using it is that it's really great!!
My husband, who makes small portions every year despite complaining about his back pain, said, "Wow, this is great!"
I was surprised at how convenient it is not needing kindling.
Of course, dry firewood is important for the smoke and the way the fire circulates, but I used to think that you needed to mix the firewood and split it into smaller pieces to allow air to circulate, and use chips or scraps of coniferous wood like cedar if you had them... but now you can get by with just thick firewood 👀
It's heavy, but it seems sturdy and it's incredibly easy to start a fire, so I think it would be easy for women to use too.
If you are a wood stove user, we highly recommend you try using a single firewood stove!!
This year I feel like I want to master fire-making too!

Many wood stove users find it troublesome to split the wood into thin strips and make kindling for starting a fire.
An item that eliminates the need for kindling 🔥 I actually tried it.
The principle is similar to that of a T-Bahn ignition. Four thick slits are placed together, with gaps between them to allow air to pass through, and then ignited. This is similar to the Swedish torch principle.
However, if the gap is large, too much air will pass through and the flame may go out halfway through, so it takes some skill to do so. The first time I tried to light it, I was stingy and used just one piece of fire starter and a piece of a milk carton, but it looked a little shaky, so I left the door half-open halfway through.
If you think about it a little more technically, modern stoves with baffles might be a better fit. Heat reflection occurs when the baffle warms up, and the air passing through from below and the reflected heat from the baffle heat the firewood from above and below, so it seems like it would be easier to light. Eliminating the finely split firewood also reduces firewood consumption a little.
On the other hand, models like our Encore don't have baffles, so heat escapes quickly up the chimney, so you usually want to create lots of embers quickly, close the damper, and keep the combustion horizontal. For those who want to create lots of embers quickly, fine splitting may be necessary.
In summary, many of the stoves currently on the market have good fuel economy and combustion efficiency, making them very useful tools.
Even people who aren't good at starting fires can understand the principles of fire burning, and best of all, it saves the trouble of making kindling. There are many ways to start a wood stove, and I think this is another excellent tool.

In my house, we always cut up scrap wood with a log splitter to use as kindling, and then use a milk carton as kindling to light the fire.
It suddenly got cold this week, and although I had firewood, I hadn't prepared any kindling yet this season, so I was really grateful for the timing to be able to try it out.
It would be great if I could start a fire with just a piece of firewood and a milk carton, so I'm going to try out various things from now on!!
In any case, I feel that this is a reassuring item for wood stove users!
I hope to enjoy the wood stove season as much as I can this year and expand my cooking repertoire 🙏

Wood stove season is in!
This season's new item is "fireside's firewood."
It's a great product that can light thick logs straight away without any kindling.
Just place one piece of firewood between thick logs and light it?! Lol I tried it with some skepticism, and the flames really started in no time!
You'll definitely use this - it's the best item.

Each firewood cut creates just the right amount of space between the logs, allowing air to flow.
This is a very handy product that allows the fire to spread smoothly and grow into a solid flame. But what about it? Is it really possible to light a fire without kindling?
Please don't fail to light the fire the first time!? Please!? That's what I thought, but when I put in the first batch of firewood, it started burning nicely♪
It's so good! It's amazing that you don't need any kindling!
Until now, I've had occasional issues with baking and it's been a mess, but from now on, it looks like those kinds of mistakes will be eliminated ♪ It's really moving 🥹

I had always wanted space for the hearth and firewood, but never thought the day would come.
Four oak trees caught fire beautifully without any kindling, using only fire starter.
There is also a single firewood piece placed between each firewood, making it really easy to burn 🔥
Starting this year, the amount of kindling is likely to decrease significantly.

It was usually my job to light the fire first thing in the winter mornings, and sometimes it would go out in the cold and I would have a hard time.
Until now, I've been on edge, making sure the fire doesn't go out, while also keeping an eye on it and feeding my dog and cat breakfast, but in the middle of winter, even for a short time, it's difficult to bear.
If this device keeps the fire burning steadily, you can rest assured.
Now that I don't have to worry about it disappearing, I can go back to bed and wait for the room to warm up, which is great as it reduces the amount of time I spend shivering from the cold.
The way it quietly burns from within feels fresh and reassuring.

First season with Ambition.
We haven't lit our stove many times yet, but this time my wife and I decided to try it together with our children. It was the first time for all three of us to light a wood stove.
My wife's impression was that "Assembling it wasn't particularly difficult as long as I followed the instructions."
If you use any other method of burning, there seem to be many difficult issues, such as how to arrange the fine logs, and when and how to add the thicker logs.
When using a single firewood, I think it's good that once it's lit you can leave it alone for a while.
We live in a residential development and our neighbors are close by, so the noise can be a bit bothersome when we use the kinkura for long periods of time (maybe I'm just being too bothered by it), but I think this is perfect for our home as it reduces the frequency of that noise.

The first fire of the season started with a single burst of firewood.
-After the flames spread to the firewood, the entire log continued to burn evenly and beautifully.
・I was a little impressed because there was absolutely no embers left.
- The glass does not fog up, reducing stress.
-When I lit the fire for the second time, I thought my hands would get dirty with soot when I took out a piece of firewood, but because it burned completely, only a little ash remained.
-If you no longer need kindling, you will need less space to store firewood indoors and outdoors (which is great since we have a small space).
-The area around the hearth is neat and tidy.
・It's surprisingly heavy.

My son, a second-grader, took on the challenge. He gave me some instructions, but he basically did the work himself.
I helped out with some of the heavy firewood and moving the fire starters.
When asked about his impressions of using a single shot of firewood, he said, "It wasn't particularly difficult."
The assembly and stacking was done with the precision of a child, so I don't think it was as precise as the instruction manual, but it still lit successfully.
My son almost never starts it, but my wife often finds it smoldering when she lights it in the evening.
My son knew about this, and when I asked him how it compared to the other method, he said that this method was easier. He meant that it was easier and less work than piling up kindling.

During the season, I turn on the stove when I get home and do housework.
The room is cold so I want to turn it on quickly.
I have other things to do so I can't take the time to light the stove.
I cook with plenty of kindling and kindling agent. I also put some medium-sized firewood on top of the kindling from the start (because I don't want to have to keep checking it).
The setup is almost complete, and once it's lit, all that's left to do is close the damper.
It was very convenient. I feel like it took less time for the room to heat up than when I normally use the stove.

Use two Dragon Fire Starters.
I was worried about the dryness of the firewood, but it burned smoothly.
It took about 20 minutes for the entire log to catch fire. Halfway through (around 12 minutes), I narrowed the gap between the upper logs a little to adjust it.
If I use kindling, I usually open the front door for 1-2 minutes, but this time I left it open for about 5 minutes.
