This, of course, all changes when you add fatty meat to the grill.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDepending on the length of your meal, Grills of Japan Binchotan is reusable between 2-3 times. If using Binchotan in any of the above listed grills, simply close all vents once finished grilling in order to extinguish your Binchotan ready for its next use. Otherwise, use a Grills of Japan Ceramic Extinguishing Pot, or simply immerse in water, remove and leave to dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnlike Japanese Binchotan, which has a total burn time of up to 4-5 hours and very little ash, our Acacia Binchotan has a minimum burn time of up to 4 hours with slightly more ash content.
