Only one way to find out, looking forward to your bagel cook.

I'm a former Primo user and loved the shape too. The KK is similar in shape so I don't think you will miss that and you certainly won't miss not having to replace the firebox. The other great news is that whatever you cook on the KK will taste even better, no kidding. I don't have a 32 let alone the 42 but if my ship were to come in I'd go for the 32 but that all depends upon the amount of food that you will be doing at a time. Whatever you decide I'm sure you are going to love cooking on the KK, it has been a wonderful experience for me. 👍👍

Welcome, I am sure you will be thrilled with cooking on the KK. I'm sure you will be eating thrilled with the taste of the food you cook on the KK and it will take less effort.

I wouldn't sweat the charcoal issue, you will find your sweet spot over time. I close my lid straight away after lighting and remember dire warnings of messing up my gasket (or burning my hands) when I first joined the forum and was told not to leave the lid up with a fire going.
Totally agree with Tekobo.

The lid is not left open as such, it just isn't closed up tight. There are two positions for the lock, one to keep lid tight for cooking and the other to take the pressure of the gasket when the KK is resting.

@MsTwiggy Welcome, great looking KK and those cooks look wonderful. I would fill up the basket with lump. After the cook is done and you shut the vents down the fire soon goes out and you will have lump left for your next cook. You will just need to stir it up and top it off with more lump. Remember once the cook is done and the fire is out set the lid clasp so that the dome is not squishing your gasket. There are two settings for the dome one is tight for the cook and the other for resting between cooks. It relieves the pressure on the gasket which will make the gasket last a lot longer.

Actually... What was first? Tiles or Pebbles? Or did Dennis start with both?
Tiles, then Dennis realize his mistake and brought in pebbles, they cook better.

Looks like they have some well rusted ones on display, imagine rubbing up against that.

I hope you are going to teach us a lesson on how to use that new tool.

The 16 doesn't really have a separate upper grate. Others turn the lower grate upside down on top of the main grate. It's not a very stable arrangement and it's pretty confined. I was going to bug Dennis about making something but there is not much point if others don't see the point, hence my question. I am back in the UK now and so can't pop out to take a photo to illustrate the problem. I'm not sad about that, given how cold it's been out!
I usually have to put a rolled up ball of aluminum foil or two to keep it stable when I'm using it above the main grill.

I use my 16 inch a lot because it is so easy for me in the winter to roll it right in front of the sliding glass door. I can tend it without putting on a jacket or even stepping outside. Love it.

It should be easy to turn that top rack into one that is adjustable up and down. If one was really clever perhaps it could be made to turn the whole thing upside down and have that smaller rack on the botton.

@Syzygies, it's a beauty.
