How to Create Fragrance from Wood Chips:

Soradaki Method

This method is typically used to scent a small area, by heating the wood chips over charcoal.

1. Ignite the corner of a piece of charcoal by using a match or lighter.

2. Place the charcoal on top of the ash and wait until it becomes greyish-white in color.

3. When half of the charcoal has turned greyish-white, cover it with a thin layer of ash.

4. Place wood chip directly over the heated part of the ash.

(It's best to heat the wood chips over hot ash rather than burning them directly on the charcoal).

Please note
For best results, use wood chips that are approximately 1/4" wide.

You should not reuse the ash for "Incense Ceremony" or "Mon-koh," as the scent from the wood chips may remain in the ash and change the fragrance.


You may enjoy joss stick incense, granulated incense and kneaded incense by using this same method.
