Master class - how to make brazier from brick step by step

Make a brick mangal with your own hands is not so difficult:

  1. To properly make a brazier of bricks, you first need to choose a place for it. It is desirable that it was not located near the house and, of course, was not under the fruit trees. The remote corner of the garden will be just right.
  2. We spread from the usual red brick foundation on a sandy-cement mortar. The internal part should not be processed - it will not be visible. Such an oven will consist of two compartments - directly the combustion chamber and the compartment, where the skewers will fit. In the corner we do not report one brick - this will be a hole for collecting ash.
  3. Everyone knows what brick to make a grill - from the usual or facing. But the inner part of the combustion chamber is laid out of fire-resistant (fireclay) bricks, because the temperature here will be very high, and for the furnace to last a long time it is necessary to use the right materials.
  4. Now we lay a lattice through which ash will wake up. You can buy factory production, and you can weld it yourself using inverter welding.
  5. All seams should be sealed carefully. When building the second chamber, do not forget to leave a hole for the door, through which the fuel will be loaded. The door is installed simultaneously with the outcropping of the walls.
  6. Now we will build a chimney for removing smoke. So that during the preparation of shish kebab smoke does not go to a person, it is necessary to make a brick pipe with a height of not less than one and a half meters. Inwardly we lay the reinforcement for the strength of the structure and do not forget about the damper, by means of which it is possible to regulate the smoke required for frying shish kebab.
  7. That's how our brazier will look like in the process of work. In the absence of sufficient funds, it can be laid out from improvised material that was in use, but can be made immediately from facing bricks.
  8. It is possible, together with a place for frying shish kebab, to make a small stove, on which it is convenient to warm up any food and water, thus making a brick brazier a universal garden tool. Such a single plate is not too expensive, and it is still worth it to spend on it.
  9. After the doors, the stove and the place for the shish kebab are installed, the design acquires a presentable appearance.
  10. To build a qualitative chimney, you need a strong cement solution (1: 2). It is now necessary to combine the holes for the exit of smoke. The brick must also be of good quality, because the temperature of the combustion products is very high and eventually can destroy ordinary brick, if it was used in the construction.
  11. Cement for a barbecue plate is necessary strong. It is best to buy a brand of 500 or even 600 and then your design will be very strong.

Now you know how to make a brazier of brick in your garden. To do this, do not need huge funds, and the benefits and positive emotions from using it will last for many years.
