Is this the same bamboo charcoal used in odor eliminating bags and to clarify the air? I am wondering if I could make my own bags with this.

No it's not the same, it didn't eliminate any odors for me, it's used for detoxing your body or to put in your plant food or even brushing your teeth with to naturally whiten your teeth. Hope this helps.

Yes, we have used hardwood lump charcoal and have added soaked hardwood for smoking, both with excellent results.

Pure charcoal, but I was very disappointed when it arrived. It is cheaper if you can buy it locally at a specialty garden store. Depends on how much you need.

Starwest Botanical is the brand that makes this activated charcoal. I looked on their site and it says that it is a wood based charcoal. They use sawdust to make it. Which is a renewable resource. Hope this helps. :)

It is a filter on it's own, no charcoal needed. Over time the fibers will eventually break down and you will have to replace it. Just hose off gently and air dry to clean.

this is what I have used since I bought the compost pail 2 yrs ago.I do wash them 1 x a week and then every 2 months I put new ones in . I have no odor at all . the pail sits on my counter and I use the bag liners that decompose naturally .

Yes, the bags are sold separately. You should mix it with activated carbon.

This charcoal is made in South America so not sure of what wood they use. They have a website that shows the process. It may mention the species. I can say it works well and has good flavor. High heat low ash.

There are activated charcoal products available for litter box odor control, just run a search.

I heard on an interview with the founder of Ozonics Dennis Fink on "Big Buck Registry Deer Hunting Podcast, episode #72" that you can use it indoor to eliminate odors. Just check out the podcast it answers a lot of question.

Not really. To fight odor you may want to consider something that uses a charcoal pre-filter, or uses ionic technology.

Hi Frank, The only thing I've ever used before the cubes was crappy smelling lighter fluid. Now all I use is the cube and a chimney starter. I have some hardwood coals but I haven't tried the cubes with them yet. Sorry I couldn't be more help, but I really do like those cubes!

It's a storage container to hold your charcoal. I suggest leaving it in the bag, I've heard some pour their charcoal in the container.

You can use any kind of charcoal you want. I use the cheapest stuff they sell with lighter fluid because the fumes never touch the meat.

It should act odorlessly. It is a filter. As to whether it will remove air freshener odor and incense odor. You need to not use those products anymore. If you no longer use the air freshener and the incense this has a chance of removing the odor. I have burned food on occasion and this will remove the smell after running it on high speed. Of course if I burn a meal again the burnt smell will come back. Also if you change or wash your curtains it may help.

No. Wood-based chips would give you a smoky flavor. Charcoal-based briquettes could give you an odor. But this is ceramic material and it is neutral in terms of emitting any odor or flavor whatsoever. It's main purpose is to more evenly distribute heat and mitigate flame flareups.

Simple answer YES. The grain or particle size of what you place in the bag is of greater concern. However charcoal is normally of a decent size and will not easily escape through the mesh of the bag.
