If you burn resins, powders, or herbs, you will most likely need charcoal disks. Magic Lite Charcoal Discs are one of the best brands.

Magic Lite Charcoal Discs are self-lighting and long-burning mini charcoal tablets. They can be used to burn resins, incense, powdered herbal blends or dried herbs. One of the reasons they are a top quality brand is they burn evenly and stay lit.

In order to maintain freshness, opened rolls should be resealed and stored in a cool dry place. Effective storage will ensure quick lighting and a long burning time.

Remove a disc from the sealed roll and place it in a censer or a heat proof dish. Light the edge of the disc with a match, lighter or taper. The disc will then light across its surface. The disc should be left to burn out and cool in the censer. To extinguish a disc before it has fully cooled, quench in a container of cold water.

DO NOT HOLD THE CHARCOAL DISC IN YOUR HAND WHEN LIT!

When the disc has been lit, do not handle it, as it will cause a burn. Do not dispose of the ash remains in a waste paper bin, as this may cause a fire. To avoid injury, do not hold the disc in your hand when lighting or when burning.
