HokieBen Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 That's awesome! Can't wait to see more. Seems to be a lot of deliveries being made this week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJR Posted June 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 (edited) Never let it be said that one man can't move a 23 Ultimate...alone...in flip flops...in 110 degrees. Probably not the smartest thing I've ever done, but it worked. And it's incredible. Edited June 12, 2020 by AJR 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJR Posted June 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 By the way - I got a bonus tile in the bottom of my crate. Looks to be metallic bronze, so thankfully it wasn’t off of mine. Sorry if any of you recent KK purchasers are missing a tile - I have it. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HokieBen Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Nice work! Damn, it looks really good. Love that blue. I’m pretty jealous I have to say. Just fired up my ole vision for burgers tonight still waiting. Hope you have fun firing it up for the first time this evening! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're supposed to cook with these things? I thought they were just for yard decoration. 😜 I plan to attempt the burnin tomorrow, and have the first cook on Sunday. I'll post pictures...provided I don't screw it up. If I never mention it again, you'll know the outcome. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Don't waste all that heat during the burn-in. It's safe to cook while doing it or right after. The offgassing is outside the KK and not inside where the food is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJR Posted June 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Just passing 520. Been slowly heating it up all morning. No fireworks yet. *fingers firmly crossed* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 If you have to, run to Papa Murphy's and pick up a couple. They do great in the KK on the pizza stone. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJR Posted June 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) About 8 hours in. No hissing, no bubbling, no white residue, no bulging, no soft spots that I can find, and no real strong chemical smell...though it is windy so I may just be missing it. How high should I take her?

HokieBen Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 From everything I’ve read you are plenty hot where you currently are. How long have you been doing the burn in? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman505 Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) I’d bring it down to 550. Is that the thermometer that came with it? Edited June 13, 2020 by Wingman505 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HokieBen Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 I was wondering the same about the thermometer. It’s not a Tel Tru. Thought all KK’s came with a Tel Tru? Or is that one and I just can’t tell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJR Posted June 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Yup, that’s the thermometer that came in the box. Was a bit surprised it didn’t go higher, but oh well. I closed the top half a turn, and will see what that brings it down to and just leave it there for a few hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman505 Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Dennis sends them with a Tel-Tru with a higher range. Did you swap it out? You can see the TT box on his palette. 😊 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJR Posted June 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) That’s the one that came out of that box. It was taped up in an unmarked smaller box inside of that bigger box on the pallet. I thought it looked a little smaller than others I’ve seen. Maybe I got the wrong one somehow? You’ll have to let me know what one comes with your 23 next week, @Wingman505. Edited June 13, 2020 by AJR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 That should be plenty high for the burn in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
