What makes MOON unique
What makes MOON unique
MOON is the ultimate fire basket for effortless and smokeless fires.
Smokeless sea of flames
Smokeless sea of flames
MOON sets new standards with its wood gasification technology. Rising wood particles are burnt in a second combustion stage, so there is virtually no smoke. At the same time, the fire rises from the MOON like an endless sea of flames.

Pellets or wood?
Pellets or wood?
MOON is the first höfats fire basket that works with both! Either fire it up with logs for that traditional campfire feeling, or choose pellets for up to two hours of continuous, smoke-free burning – without refuelling.
Unique patina
Unique patina
Fire leaves its mark – not only on us, but also on the product. Especially on the black nozzle, it becomes beautifully visible. Over time, the heat of the fire creates a unique patina on its surface. Soft color gradients and shimmering tones reflect the vitality of the material – making every MOON a true one of a kind.
How wood gasification technology works
Smoke-free fire is the highest art – and with MOON, it becomes reality. The key lies in its double wall, consisting of an inner and outer shell.
When air enters, it is divided into three streams:
- Two streams pass through the ash tray and heat the fuel inside the fire basket – e.g. wood or pellets
- The third stream rises between the inner and outer shell, is heated along the way, and exits through the ring of holes below the opening.
- At this point, a secondary combustion takes place, efficiently burning even the smallest wood particles and – especially when using pellets – creating a smoke-free flame.

Place two thick logs parallel to each other in the MOON fire basket. Stack three thinner logs sideways on a second level. Finally, place another two or three thin logs on a third level.
Take three kindling balls or kindling wool and place them between the top logs. Light these and let the fire burn from top to bottom.
When the wood is fully blazing, you can add more logs. However, always make sure that the perforated circle below the opening remains free to allow for secondary combustion.

Whether you prefer grilling with wood or pellets is entirely up to you. In any case, it’s important to prepare everything for the fire first, then place the Plancha, and finally ignite the fire.
Here’s how:
Align MOON so that it stands upright. Fill the fire basket with wood or pellets.
Look into the opening in the MOON from above and place two plancha feet on the nozzle; the third will automatically settle.
Check that the plancha is securely in place, then light the fire.
Let the plancha heat up for 10-15 minutes at full flame, then place the grillables on it.

HOW TO REKINDLE THE FIRE

HOW TO REKINDLE THE FIRE
When using pellets, the fire is more sensitive to wind than when using firewood. In both cases, however, the fire can easily be rekindled.
If a gust of wind extinguishes the fire and turns the flames to smoke, take your barbecue or fire tongs, grab a firelighter and light it.
Place the burning firelighter in your MOON fire basket. This will reignite the fire and make the smoke disappear in no time..
