Lighting up Uuni 3 and cooking with fire
Cooking with fire is as much an
art as it is a science. Here are
some top tips to help you get
the most from Uuni 3.
Type of pellets
Only use 100% hardwood
pellets that are meant for
cooking and grilling.
Avoid using softwood pellets as
they won’t burn as efficiently.
Do not use pellets meant for
animal bedding or heating.
These can contain additives and
potentially harmful chemicals.
Lighting method
You can either use a natural
firestarter or a blow torch to
light your Uuni 3. Instructions
for both methods are on the
following pages.
Your Uuni 3 will take
approximately 10 minutes
to reach optimum cooking
temperatures.
Maintaining temperature
To get the most consistent
burn, top up your pellets little
and often. Uuni 3 will run best
when pellets are topped up to
approximately 3 cm (1”) from
the top of the hopper (as shown
in the adjacent diagram).
Never add a full load of pellets
while lighting or topping up.
Instead, add small amounts of
pellets gradually and allow these
to light fully before topping up.
Caution: Wind can cause flames to escape from the
rear of your Uuni 3 so, as always, exercise caution
when your Uuni is lit and do not leave it unattended.
