Burning Cone Incense

Cone incense is among the simplest forms to use: a small molded cone that burns from the tip down, sending up a steady column of fragrant smoke with no holder hole or charcoal required. A cone burner like this one gives the cone a safe, heat-tolerant seat and catches the ash as it falls, so all you have to do is light it and enjoy the scent.

The burner is tradition-neutral; it serves whatever practice or simple enjoyment you bring to it. Burn a cone to clear and scent a room, to set a mood for focus or rest, or just because you like the smell.

How To Use the Alien Cone Burner

1. Set the burner on a heat-safe surface.
2. Place an incense cone in its seat, light the tip, let it catch for a few seconds, then gently blow out the flame so it glows and smolders.
3. Let the smoke rise and the ash gather in the burner as the cone burns down.
4. Burn in a ventilated room, never leave a lit cone unattended, and keep it away from children, pets, and anything flammable.
5. Let it cool completely, then tip out the ash so it is ready for next time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What incense does this burner use?

It is made for standard incense cones. Seat a cone in the burner, light it, and let it smolder. It is not a backflow burner, so ordinary cones that smoke upward are exactly what you want here.

Is this a backflow burner?

No. This is a standard cone burner, so the smoke rises in the usual way. If you are after the downward waterfall effect, you would need a backflow burner and special backflow cones instead.

Does it catch the ash?

Yes. The burner is shaped to collect the ash a cone leaves behind, keeping the surface beneath it clean. Empty it once the burner has fully cooled after each use.

How do I clean it?

Let it cool completely, then tip out the ash and wipe it with a dry or barely damp cloth. A quick clean between uses keeps the design looking its best and stops ash from building up.

Is incense smoke safe around children and pets?

Burn on a heat-safe surface in a ventilated room and keep the lit cone out of reach. Smoke should not be heavily inhaled by anyone, and pets, especially birds, are more sensitive than people, so give them space and air.
