InstaGrill is our smokeless tabletop barbecue that’s ready to use in just 5 minutes!
Let’s see how to light it up quickly and safely.
The key is to use high-quality products: for fuel, we use organic holm oak charcoal from Calabria, and for the firelighter, we recommend using a GEL (not liquid), specifically our BioEthanol GEL which is chemical-free and odorless.
Here’s how to get started!

Preparing the Charcoal Basket
Inside the bag of charcoal, you’ll find pieces in various sizes, from small to large. The larger pieces are essential because they generate more heat and last longer. If some pieces are too big, you can easily break them by hand to make them fit better in the basket.
How to Load the Charcoal Basket
- Start with the smallest pieces, placing them at the bottom of the basket to create a solid base.
- Continue by adding the larger pieces, breaking them by hand if needed to fit them nicely into the basket.
Following this order ensures faster ignition, as the smaller pieces at the bottom will help light the larger ones on top.
Applying the Ignition Gel
Once the charcoal is ready, pour the ignition gel into the steel plate using circular motions to spread it evenly. (Don’t use too much, as you want to avoid overflow.)
You can find both the charcoal and the ignition gel directly on our online shop.
Lighting the Instagrill
- Connect the included power bank into the Instagrill power port.
- Turn on the fan to create the right airflow.
- Use a lighter or a long match to light the gel.
IMPORTANT: The flame might not be visible because the gel is eco-friendly, but you’ll immediately feel the heat. - Carefully place the charcoal basket inside the Instagrill, lowering it gently on one side and then the other, making sure not to extinguish the flame.
- Now you can close the grill, securing it in place with the locking hooks.
