Some of you may not know what I'm talking about here, so let me explain.
You've probably seen incense cones and sticks but it also comes in a powder form that you sprinkle on top of a special self lighting charcoal briquette. But I ran out of the charcoal briquettes and wondered if there was a way to still burn my powder incense, so through trial and error *and a lot of smoke* I found that you can indeed burn powder incense without charcoal. That is what the powder incense looks like in the canister.
I buy Anna Rivas Powder incense because I like the way it smells. I also have a small brass cauldron that I usually burn the charcoal briquettes or cones in but this time I just placed a small piece of aluminum foil on top to hold the incense while it burned.
I was able to light it and it burned.
This is what it looked like.
If you'd like to know how I figured out how to burn powder incense without charcoal then just read my newest article.
I haven't seen powder incense before, but that's ingenious :)
ReplyDeleteMary, you have got to be the only anti-pot activist in the world that burns incense in their home. LOL.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips ;)
Never even tried that before at my shore
ReplyDeleteShelley, Thanks. ;)
ReplyDeleteCaroleDee, LOL I used to be a practicing Wiccan and burned incense during rituals. While I'm no longer Wiccan *Now Agnostic*, I still love the smell of incense.
Pat, well if you want now you know how. :)
