Fixed carbon
The part that actually burns and gives heat. Higher means longer-lasting, more efficient charcoal.
Ash
The non-combustible residue. Low-ash charcoal is cleaner and needs less clearing — important for shisha and restaurants.
Moisture
High moisture causes hard lighting, smoke and popping. Well-dried charcoal is the basis of low-odour charcoal.
