Does exactly what it says on the tin.....A nice coal fire. Makes me want to get a coffee and a slice of cake ;-)

Thumbs up.

Wow, that looks and sounds really nice. What a beautiful unit.

yup, anthracite, being mostly carbon will burn w/ a blue flame; bituminous coal, having a higher volitile (hydro-carbon) content will burn w/ some smoke and a red/ orange flame - which is much more enjoyable for an open fire. In fact, anthracite is rarely used in open fires as it's almost impossible to keep burning easily in those conditions.

AAAAAAAaaahhhhhh!! Jist eih Feynist!! A Coal Fyre!!

No need to swear, but that is smoke I see, If thats a coal fire with smoke then it's Bituminous Coal. Not Anthracite which does not make smoke at all, and I hate to tell you it will give a Bluish burn at certain temps. sometimes purple even.

if its anthracite it does dick head. its got a ahigher carbon content and it burns hotter and not a large flame.
