Knock down and move in two pieces... Your cooker is designed to be broken down very easily... Remove the stainless cover and then loosen and remove the large bolt that is at the bottom of the hinge's spring with the supplied 19mm socket wrench. Next you want to pull out the cotter pin from the left side of the hinges pivot shaft. Now tap out the shaft... the top half is now free of the lower.. your Classic top half weighs 43kgs (96lbs) and although heavy is manageable. The lower half weighs 115kg (253lbs) and comes with a blue nylon rope harness that can be used to pick it up either with 5cm X 10cm wood boards (2"x4") or by hand. I always recommend using a refrigerator dolly that has canvas straps when possible..

Thank you for all your kind email of concern about the tsunami in Java. Fortunately I'm on the other side of the island and considering there are 90 million people on this island the area hit was not too populated...

I'm also looking for the ideal setup.. I want a L coming out to a quick release connected to the hose.. Problem being is that everything here is metric.. but I really don't want my customers to have to run around so I'll probably end up shipping them here paying tax on them just to ship them back.. Murphy's Law prevails

Most definitely still shipping to Orlando

Drying the cookers The two layer refractory and insulation material still hold about a gallon per half after they have air dried. The vacuum kiln removes this water. The body is wet with water and adhesive with a paint brush before the mortar is applied for better adhesion. The mortar of course is mixed with adhesive which is water based as is the grout. Heating the cooker with the gas burner does dry them both. Common sense would dictate that it's best to try to remove this moisture before I soak/seal the grout with water and stain proof sealer.. Possibly trapping it in.. I know too much thought

This might be cool.. any other ideas? I'm looking for a font that I can cut out with the CNC to the left and right of the lower latch thru the strip and then filled with grout.. This might be cool.. any other ideas? Thanks for all your help.. BTW.. We just found your top today in the storage room.. I thought it went out weeks ago.. Total brain fart.. It's now on the water.. You can have it no charge...

KK How-To (Please post your suggestions here for a Q&A!)
DennisLinkletter replied to inacoma's topic in KK 411
I know it looks like too much The problem here is that you left the SCCR (Small Cook Containment Ring) in the basket.. When doing a small cook it's nice to use this ring to be able to stack a small volume of coals.. It's easier to light and control them stacked. For regular cooks, pull out the SCCR and fill the main coal bowl.. I know it looks like too much but remember airflow controls the burn/temp not the amount of charcoal. After you light this larger volume up, you will find it will be fast and easy to get to 350. When your finished cooking, close it down, this cuts the oxygen, kills the burn and saves the remaining charcoal for your next cook... -
Heat.. The mortar holds moisture and the grout seals it in and the grout is also sealed.. This is not much but I really believe that until it is disapated there is more heat held in the tiles.. I've been cooking on a textured the last 6-8 months.. The other day we were heating a cooker with gas and same thing when I touched it I was really surprised how hot the tiles were.. So my guess is that after a few cooks the trapped moisture will disapate and it'll be cooler to the touch.. I've been playing with heating them with gas for 4-5 hours after they are tiled before the grout to remove this moisture...

Yup.. As you know, I've designed and built a lotta teak furniture in my day.. Over 600 containers worth to be a lil more exact. After reading the New York Times article, Pimp My Grill where they pointed out how popular the fully loaded cooking islands were and how people were spending obscene amounts of money on them, I immediately realized that I was missing the boat by not utilizing/marrying my woodworking division in the factory to Komodo. So the plan is to make everything from simple tables to fully loaded units that will have everything including the kitchen sink.. So now.. I have a dream The problem is that in the real world, I just signed on to do 100,000 sq.' of hand worked textured teak floors for a new Four Seasons Hotel being built. This of course is a dream job.. and will have me running 2 and 3 shifts in some departments, 7 days a week. Thank God I'm on Java and have access to lots of good coffee...

Just like daddy, my little girl Larissa Isla now 8 months old and sporting 6 teeth dug into her first smoked meat today and loved it.. Here she is tearing into some maple brined and smoked piggy fillet.. And you thought my cookers were beautiful!

That's Curly.. That's Curly.. Assistant to Gerard, our full time gloom master who was out with a runny nose. Don't worry about Swiss customs.. If my cookers can live through US customs and Homeland Security they will not even notice yours..

Actually it's not a monkey.. TMI Known as the luwak, luak, musang, toddy cat, civet, palm civet and civet-cat, many people believe it is a wild cat. While it is a mammal it is actually a cousin of the mongoose. Probably it’s closest North American counterpart is the skunk with which it shares the ability to excrete a noxious odor from scent glands near it’s anus. The animal can range from four to eleven pounds and is largely nocturnal. While it is an omnivore, the luwak is particularly fond of perfectly ripe coffee cherries. Thanks to coffee farmers, the luwak has no troubles finding plenty of coffee. Once eaten, the coffee cherries take the normal route through the animal’s digestive path. The amazing thing is while the fruit of the coffee is being digested, the bean is left largely unchanged, eventually passing in the animals droppings. The droppings and their caffeine-laden content are collected by farmers. The coffee is then cleaned and the green, un-roasted bean shipped to roasters. Why would you want to drink this shitty coffee? There are a lot of theories on why kopi luwak is different. Research has determined that coffee passed by a luwak has been changed chemically. Specifically the process seems to break down some of the bean’s proteins which are known to contribute to the bitterness of coffee. So research from the University of Guelph in Canada, reported here, and further detailed in this article confirms the coffee’s chemical makeup is altered by it’s special little journey, I think it also important to consider the luwak’s own affinity for fine coffee. When coffee, like other fruit, is harvested, not all the fruit will be perfectly ripe. Since the majority is ripe and it is to be combined for use, the end product comes out well; however, if you have an animal which naturally selecting only the ripest fruit you will end up with a product of unparalleled quality.
