tony b Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 As noted, the pebbled ones have more grout, so during the one time venting process, they will vent more and are more likely to have tiles bulge up a bit. Other than that, it's down to aesthetics, just like color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tucker Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 FWIW, my pebble grill never vented like the square tile ones. I think that although the logic of more grout = more vent seems sound, I think that more variables come into play; such as mix, weather when applied, during storage, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Just passing along what Dennis has told us before - just sayin'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 There it is. In the industry we had specs, temps, speeds and bath pic up to consider to insure a product the customer would accept. It's a mix, it all finds it's way, with a lot of work. No more.......retired. A lot of variables Tucker. I heard that before, the just sayin part. Nailed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldsman Posted February 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Thanks again all ya'll, as for color Yellow Goldwings are the fastest, wrong forum I really like the Cobalt Blue Pebbles, as for the grout vs tiles could go either way concerning the coefficient of thermal transfer depending on the grade of the grout, amount of Al vs s SI, etc. But it is an interesting conversation concerning the delta of the heat transfer between the too, especially with the more exposed grout. Would be an interesting test. Maybe Dennis will pony up 2 units and i can arrange the necessary equipment to monitor it over the course of time. Might be wishful thinking though. Haven't pulled trigger yet but pretty sue will be the big bad 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Great minds think alike, well there's still time to come to your senses, but if you have to go to the dark side call 5698 he's well acquainted with the area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5698k Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 We can have fun with the tile/pebble debate, but the main thing, and the one thing we’ll all agree on, is that getting a kk is the right thing to do. Congrats on whatever you choose, you’re gonna love it!!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrus Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 That was supposed to say there is NO substitute. I do like that color tile and as a matter of fact I think they are all good and pleasing to the eye. But the Blue is the color that stands alone, hey if it wasn't for Blue, we would never had BB King, Clapton, George Thorogood or the legendary Tab Benoit just to mention a few. You have to admit the Blues live on, Dark Autumn Nebula?, although it's sweet in the fall,... well you can see my point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me tell ya, I'm not an expert on psychological profiling when it comes to color but scientific data points to those of the other persuasion {brown} generally like there meat cooked well done, and those choosing a blueish color prefer a med rare. You could also think outside the box, and look at the Star Trek theory regarding this phenomenon. Nebula, a word for star gazers, any how you look at it, it's safer to blue and true than brown and..........gotta go, I got flip my steak on my denim blue KK.
