  1. probably because she clicks the "quote" button on the right of the posting instead of copy/paste.
  2. Super!!! U2PLT & I will buy as soon as you make it available!!!
  3. I mostly drink my own beer...been making it for about 3 years now.
  4. By the way, the reason the keg Heineken doesn't task skunky is probably because it isn't in a green bottle. The green bottles do not block UV light....UV light makes beer skunky. But it might also be the fact that beer in a bottle is a more concentrated experience than beer in a keg. Maybe the makers of Heineken want the beer to be somewhat skunky. UV exposure: Hop-derived molecules, called isohumulones, are basically ripped apart. Some of these parts bind with sulfur atoms to create that “skunk†character, which is similar in character to a skunk's natural defense and is such a potent compound that parts-per-trillion can be detected and even ruin a beer. Although brown bottles aid in protecting beer from being light-struck, it hardly makes the beer invincible. Green or clear bottles provide little to no protection. And it's been said that bottled beer can become light-struck in less than one minute in bright sun, after a few hours in diffuse daylight, and in a few days under normal fluorescent lighting.
  5. My son is now a happily married man!!! Wedding in San Diego....they all complained and said we brought the Texas heat with us...it was in the mid 90's!! From left to right: Me, my bride(Norma), the newly weds, by cousins Sherry & Danny Kline.
  6. The lid was closed. When I looked at the thermo I thought the fire had gone out.....boy was I wrong!
  7. Re: WOW! That was HOT! It should be able to be re-calibrated.. It's a LT225R 5" stem Don't walk away takes on a whole new meaning at 1,200ºf I won't do that again...just about burned my hand off when I touched the handle!! How would one "re-calibrate" it?
  8. If my thermo has gone bad....witch Tel-Tru model do I purchase to replace it?. I let the KK get so hot that the thermo went all the way around! I'm going to check it in some boiling water to see if it is still working....but I wanted to know what model I would get if I have to replace it. Thanks!
  9. Re: Hello to All Welcome to the family!! You won't regret getting a KK....you would have regretted the other one...believe me I know!! Don't forget to take pictures as soon as your KK arrives and post them for us to see.
  10. Since Texas has such HOT summers you'll probably want to send me one to "stress" test and make sure the new design can handle it!!
  11. Looking good!! Welcome to the KK family!!
  12. Re: Guru port plug If you buy a Guru this lovely plug comes with it. If you buy a new KOmodo in the near future.. It will have one also. I recommend purchasing the new KOmodo if you really got to have one. HA! Don't think I can justify to the wife buying another Komodo at this time. Hope that new Guru plug is bigger than the old Guru plug...I have an old Guru plug and it is too small for the port on my Komodo.
  13. Excellent! Now all we need is a plug for the Guru port.
  14. Welcome!! Glad to see that you have been "saved" from the Dark Side!!
  15. I have the stoker and I use a wireless gaming adapter to connect it to my network. I also run a 3rd party program to control and monitor the stoker, nice little program written by a guy over at the Virtual Weber Bullet forum. Here is a screen shot of StokerLog You can read about the StokerLog here: Virtual Weber Bullet Forum
  16. I let the chicken sit uncovered in the fridge overnight to make sure the skin is good and dry. With the weber coal holders I don't have flare ups and I still get a nice crisp skin.
  17. Re: Paella I didn't get a SS drip pan with my KK!
  18. Re: Paella Do you think Paella is best in a steel pan or can you get same results in a stainless still paella pan?
