pmpapi6 Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 How much coal do you need to cook at 225 for 16 hrs and can you do it without reloading? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdbower Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 I couldn't tell you because I always just fill up the basket, but I can go for well over 24 hours on a single basket of KKEC with plenty left over. Even with regular lump you should be able to go far beyond 16 hours on a single basket - the KK is extremely efficient that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryan Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Re: burning time How much coal do you need to cook at 225 for 16 hrs and can you do it without reloading? I always start with a full basket of lump. And yes you can go 16 hrs. I have done 24 hrs at 220. Just be sure to start a very very very small fire and work up slow. If I recall correctly you are all ready on your way to good fire control. If you are into reading use the "search" feature here on site.
