Fire Pit Base Plate
The Cook King Fire Pit Base Plate is a sturdy metal baseplate that is designed to sit beneath fire baskets and fire pits
It will help keep ash or embers safely contained and protect the surface below.
It can be used with any fire basket or fire pit up to 60cm in diameter.
Garden Chefs guide to a better fire pit experience:
- Use a good amount of kindling to get the fire going
- Where possible use kiln-dried logs, (kiln-dried wood gives off far less smoke)
- Split logs down with an axe (thicker logs will smoke more)
- Keep the temperature up by adding logs regularly, don’t let the fire burn right down before adding more fuel
- Allow airflow around your logs as you stack them
- Enjoy
Please note that steel fire pits and accessories will show surface rust, especially if they are not covered during wet weather, but follow the basic maintenance laid out below and use a cover when not in use and your new fire pit will last for many many years.
Products can be cleaned with a damp cloth and dried thoroughly, grates should be coated with a thin layer of edible oil, repeating this step regularly to prevent rusting.
Black raw steel may have rust appear after some time, this is a natural process and is not a manufacturing fault
Black raw steel can be maintained by sanding with fine grade sandpaper and painting with high-temperature paint. The inside of black steel fire bowls should however not be painted but can be coated with a thin layer of edible oil to help prevent rust.
