Clean chimney disc cheap with ash - with photo guide

Stove good and beautiful, great warmth, coziness - who has a, knows that. BUT at some point you can hardly see the beautiful Geflacker, because the disc is sooty.

In the meantime, I have tried all sorts of tips and have come to the firm conclusion that cleaning with ashes is the best and cheapest. Therefore, I use this tip again as the most effective and cheapest brushing method and hope that it will be published anyway.

All you need is a kitchen roll and water - the ashes are in the fireplace anyway.


So that everyone can see how great this works, my son photographed me while cleaning. A step-by-step documentation, so to speak.

Step 1: Remove wood residues
