Due to the many pan sizes and shapes there is not an exact pattern and these coal layouts are intended as a guide to illustrate
the general principles. It is important to leave spaces of 15mm - 20mm between the simulated coals to ensure good secondary
aeration. Do not overload the fire as it will spoil the appearance of the fire and cause sooting. Do not put more than 3 layers of
simulated coals on any fire. The small simulated coals are laid along the front of the fire and the large simulated coals above and
behind, as shown on the typical layout. Depending on the size of the fire it might not be necessary to use all the simulated coals
supplied. Do not add further simulated coal.

The dressing coal set gives a random look to the top layer but it is important to keep at least a 20mm gap between these coals.
