Frequently asked questions
What is the best way to portion out charcoal from a bulk bag?
Most buyers use a small measuring spoon to scoop out their own amount for DIY projects. Since serving size is not specified on this listing, follow the packaging instructions that arrive with the product.
Is a 1-pound bag more than most people need?
It depends on how often you plan to use it. A pound goes a long way for occasional DIY use, while frequent users may go through it faster.
