Athonite Charcoal Powder
21 oz can is temporarily out of stock, but don't worry, more are coming! Our apologies.
A unique alternative to traditional charcoal is this Athonite-style charcoal powder made of grapevine cuttings from St.
Anthony’s monastery. The charcoal powder has the following advantages
over traditional charcoal tablets: - Does not produce smoke or sparks
- Does not make noise upon lighting
- Much cheaper than tablets
- Use only as much as you need
The 7-oz. can has enough powder to burn incense approximately 250
times. The 21-oz. can has enough powder to burn incense approximately
750 times. Both sizes come in round tin cans. Lighting Instructions: Open can carefully to avoid spilling. Do not throw away old ashes. Scoop out ashes from the center of the censer to form a small cavity. Place ½ heaping teaspoon of charcoal powder in the cavity and light it with a grill lighter or a thin candle for 5-10 sec. Wait 2-3 min. until all powder starts glowing. Place a few pieces of incense on top. |
