agree  Nora Vinnbru (X): Ich glaube, diese Übersetzung reicht vollkommen aus, denn hieraus geht eindeutig hervor, dass es sich um Holzkohlestücke handelt.

neutral  Armorel Young: it's getting at the distinction between lumpwood charcoal and briquettes - I'm not sure this translation makes that clear
23 mins
agree  Steffen Walter: In contrast to Armorel, I think that your suggestion is clear enough as we would spell out the "Briketts" in the other case, i.e. if these were mentioned in the source text.
