Just purchased the Creosote Sweeping Log. You burn it like another log and
suppose to release minerals to loosen creosote in the chimney. Do those
things really work and how effective is it?

They might make some tiny difference. However, if your chimney is crusty
with creosote it needs to be cleaned. Do not use the "chimney fire"
technique, by the way!
