I put mine on a couple of fire bricks on top of a cutting board on the table
so as not to scorch the tabletop.  I heat the charcoals outside and then use
tongs to transfer them into the base of the hotpot.  Some suggest using sand
or some such but I just stick the coals in.  You control the temperature by
how many coals you have in the thing.  Experiment!
