Rooikrans Bulk Bag: common questions
How many pieces are in a rooikrans bulk bag?
20 pieces of rooikrans in each bulk bag. For more, loose rooikrans comes in 250, 500, 1,000, 2,000 or 3,000 pieces.
Rooikrans or kameeldoring for a braai?
Rooikrans for a quick braai: it lights easily and coals fast. Kameeldoring for a crowd: it takes longer to catch, but its coals hold longer.
Is rooikrans covered by the Dry Guarantee?
No. Our Dry Guarantee covers the bags marked Dry Guaranteed, and the Rooikrans Bulk Bag is sold as-is. We store it under cover; keep it under a roof until you braai.
Is rooikrans good for a pizza oven?
We don't recommend it. Use Blue Gum or Blackwattle, with a few pieces of Swarthaak for extra heat.
