Fire Bricks melted
Is there a difference in fire bricks.
Brick Fire Pit Thoughts
I have a similar fire pit from Menards. Looks almost identical except the insert has a hinged grate.
Only been installed since April, but I've had no issues. Used it maybe 10 times so far this summer, pea gravel and all.

I bought new fire bricks after the last ones I had eventually blackened and got super brittle and crumbled, as I assume is normal. These just flat melted, you can see the one brick is black and glassy. I used two more bricks to block the back of the forge, same as I always do, and I was only using one burner. Is that a normal thing or am I doing something wrong with the forge?
I'm looking into making a small forge. The bricks I can find locally are for re lining fire places and wood stoves. Will those work?
