The good news is I shipped a container of Coffee Wood LUMP Charcoal and it came in this week. The bad news is that NYK no longer accepts charcoal shipments in 40' containers. This is a big bummer because I used to put charcoal above the grills in my monthly containers. Argh.. now I need to ship it in 20' containers as semi-hazardous material.. paid for in full. This adds $7.5 to my per box cost on the lump and half that on the coco char. (lump is 2x the volume) I have raised the coffee char only $4 to $28 for the time being.. I'll get you all addicted to it before raising the cost. More good news is that it's truly premium lump designed to give you the most smooth coffee smoke flavor. Only large and medium pieces which have the most organic vapor in them.. The smalls are sold here in the local market.

At long last we have coffee smoking wood in stock. Pairs well with all meats. Super premium Coffee Wood hand-scraped to remove bark and then hand- split into 3 manageable sizes. Sun dried to 15% to ensure freshness. This medium density smoke would be comparable to pecan and hickory but with a unique flavor profile that needs to be experienced/tasted to understand. 10lb box Big Chunks $16 http://komodokamado.com/collections/32-bad-boy-accessories/products/coffee-smoking-wood-big-chunks-10-lbs 10lb box Mini Splits $18 http://komodokamado.com/collections/32-bad-boy-accessories/products/coffee-smoking-wood-mini-splits-10-lbs 5lb box Cold Smoker Smalls $10 http://komodokamado.com/collections/32-bad-boy-accessories/products/coffee-smoking-wood-cold-smoker-smalls-5-lbs

You can add as many boxes of charcoal to a grill order without changing the delivery significantly. They are already picking up and delivering hundreds of lbs with the grill. All charcoal burns the same time "by weight". The coco char only appears to burn longer because you can put more of it in the basket because it's more dense. A 23" basket can hold 16 lbs of coco char, at 235º it will definitely burn 80-85 hours. The 32 would hold more charcoal, about 30 lbs giving you about 120 hours. I'll do a full 32 burn this weekend.

Final post here.. This has to be a record 16,998 visits in 6 days or 2,833 average a day.. My life would sure be different if this was all thru the high season.. I never forget the little train who could

Looks great, next time try putting it up on the upper grate.. this lets you take advantage of the heat coming off the ceiling for browning.

Forum traffic has been killing it 2,653 visitors in three days..

The usual suspects are small pieces of lump cutting off airflow or smalls and ash from the previous cook. Stirring only relieves airflow problems something that is rarely an issue with the KK charcoal baskets which breath soo well..

Labor Day web traffic.. The gift that keeps on giving.. KK website ~ 3 days 11,920 unique visits and 14 sales! KK forum

Thanks for the idea.. Saw the traffic, was going to wait until I had stock of the 22" Table Top but your idea along with the traffic I had to jump.. Great day in sales too!

I'd say today was a good start.. Labor Day emailing and Facebook posts brought in 11- 22" Supreme, 2 - 23" Ultimate and 1 - 32" Big Bad sales! A great day to say the least!

I will also still make them as a special order just not carry inventory in the States. and as Bosco said the 22 table top uses all the same components and most of the accessories are the same size as the 23" grill too..

We killed it on Sunday too.. Almost 10k unique IP visitors in two days! LOVE it.. Gotta be the Project Smoke marathon.. This is the website and the forum

The 22" Standing Supreme in some measurements is larger than the 23" Ultimate and carrying them both is redundant, and unnecessary. The grill has morphed into a Hi-Cap Table Top on steroids which complements the KK line well because customers want to replace XL glazed kamados in their built-in kitchens and the 19" was just too small. The current inventory will be discounted $600 Standard Tiles were $4,100 now $3,500 Pebble and Bronze tiles were $4,280 now $3,680 http://komodokamado.com/collections/22-supreme This is the grill to replace the standing 22" I will go to the factory wednesday and take the final shots.. Yes it will have a lower tray with corner protection.

Not sure what went on this weekend Stateside but we had huge day both on the website and forum. The cookie driven website traffic report showed 4582 unique IP visitors.. I believe this is a record but I'm not sure what drove the traffic.. Anybody know what could have driven thousands to the site? The forum also did well with 819 unique IP visitors

Oops I forgot the basket splitter.. And the plates can be set overlapping the others so you can use it in any position along the way.

I'll be flying to the factory next week and take all the final shots of the 42 SBB Just wanted to share these production videos of the grill self-opening.. How's this for effortless?

Best to get one of the solid shafts.. Those adjustable shafts were for the non-adjustable brackets. No that we have the adjustable bracket the solid shaft is the way to go. Please send us an email and request one.. [email protected]

No problem in towing it around by the handle. It's welded to a strong cage that hangs off the top strap. I don't suggest trying to lift the grill by the handle but towing on a flat surface is fine.

The bronze grill is in Singapore.. That vibrant blue looks great with your pool's color.

Argh.. Yes we made the baking stone as large as possible to fit between the two handles of the upper grate. The grates themselves are made in a jig for uniformity, the handles are installed by hand and if the handles lean in just a tad too much this can happen.. As they said, a well placed tap will correct this easily.. Sorry we missed it

Love the repurposed crate.. that's the first time I've seen that. Grill looks great. Welcome to the forum.

You can bake on anything actually even your SS grates.. the difference is in the thermal transfer.. The more dense the material is the more heat is transferred and if less dense less heat. It really depends on what you are baking. For standard crust to thick crust and bread our baking stone works great.. if a stone is too hot the crust burns before the toppings are cooked, too porous and the top burns before the crust is ready. For cracker /Neapolitan pizza you need a baking steel that is screaming hot. Yes, Ken you are correct the heat deflectors are the same material as the grill's hot-face while the baking stone has a very targeted/engineered density for baking and a nearly polished surface.

Not necessary to have two.. The rear gas port is not flush with the floor of the grill.. this prevents ash and an ember from rolling out that door. It's not a cooking door so does not need to be shielded from heat. The knob has two star lock washers to keep the teak knob just off the hot stainless and prevent burns.

Tough to understand by measurements, better to see it. Designed to give you the most possible real estate possible.

Heat shield, ash screen.. used where it was sitting.. curved side up tubes towards the draft door, sitting on the draft door tubes, just under the firebox. It prevents line of sight hot air from getting to the draft door and prevents ash or burning embers from ever rolling out the draft door.
