How to Make a Coffee Fire Log
Hi there, I'm Nili Nathan, how are you? It is the holiday season, and we'll be making fires in our fireplaces. Of course, we want to try to stay as 'green', and environmentally friendly, as we can, even with our fire logs. Look what I have found, this is called a Java log. I found this at the health food store and this is great! It is made out of recycled coffee grounds. Can you believe that? It is also made out of other natural ingredients. Now, why do I like this? I like it because it is good for the environment. It is good for our health. So, why not use it? It is better for landfills instead of polluting them with junk. This log also has less carbon monoxide. So again, it is called a Java log and let me show it to you. It burns seven times cleaner than regular wood. Be sure to check it out at your local health food store. Lets open the package and see what it looks like. Wow, look at this! This is fantastic! This log took over 3,000 recycled cups of coffee to make. Can you believe that? What will they think of next? At any rate, it really will make the room smell delightful, as well. However, if this is too weird for you, and you don't want to get a Java coffee log, you have other options. My suggestion is, to pick your favorite essential oil, for example, cinnamon, orange or peppermint, and placing a few drops onto your fire log. Let the log sit for about an hour and then throw it into the fire. You will then have an amazing wonderfully holiday scented fire. That is it for now. I am Nili Nathan for Great Living TV.
