🔥 5 MM FIREBOX

The 5 mm firebox provides:

• efficient heat retention;
• more stable cooking temperature;
• slower cooling;
• good resistance to repeated heating;
• consistent ember formation;
• suitability for longer sessions.

Regular cleaning and protection against moisture remain necessary.

🗃️ ASH PAN

The ash pan collects ash and fine combustion residue, providing:

• easier cleaning;
• organised ash removal;
• reduced accumulation beneath the fuel;
• better airflow when kept clean;
• a tidier BBQ area.

Empty it only after complete cooling.

▭ THREE COOKING GRATES

Three separate grates make it easier to organise different foods and cooking times.

They are suitable for steaks, chicken, sausages, burgers, fish, vegetables, mushrooms, corn and bread.

Separate sections are easier to handle and clean than one large grate.

🌡️ TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Heat is regulated through the quantity and distribution of wood or charcoal.

Create a hotter zone for searing and a moderate section for chicken, fish and vegetables. Add firewood gradually after forming a stable ember bed.

🧰 WORKSPACE AND MOBILITY

The side shelves provide space for utensils and ingredients, while the lower rack can hold cookware and BBQ accessories.

Wheels assist movement over level surfaces. Move the brazier only when fully cooled and empty of embers.

👨‍🍳 CASAGRILL RECOMMENDATIONS

Heat the firebox without food before first use and clean the grates after cooling.

Wait for a stable ember bed. Use higher heat for searing and moderate heat for fish, vegetables and chicken.

Avoid overcrowding the grates. Empty the ash pan only after complete cooling and protect the brazier from precipitation.

⚠️ SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

Use only outdoors on a stable, non-combustible surface. Never leave the fire unattended or use flammable ignition liquids. Wear heat-resistant gloves, do not move the hot brazier and remove ash only after complete cooling.
