After the initial fires, it is important to let it "cure". This is a process in which you slowly build up the heat for around an hour and then let it go out naturally. This allows the clay to adapt to the higher temperatures and prevents it from cracking or breaking.

A grate must be installed inside the chiminea to help in limiting the size of the fire and to stop ash from accumulating. This can be done using rock sand, chiminea rocks or pea gravel. Always use an open fire that is smaller than the chiminea outdoor can comfortably handle to avoid overheating and damaging the clay.
