I would do some things differently.

Two actually. The handles arrived a little over a week ago, and I have not had time ot finish them. This weekend, I applied a few coats of Spar varnish (NOT Spar Urethane), sanding a few strokes with 220 grit in between. I just put the handles on the Red Master-Touch today. I might give them...

This guy painted his Weber, how do you think it turned out? Weber Painting Note: 1) I searched and did not see this posted by anyone else, but I definitely could have missed it. 2) I wanted to include the links to the pictures right in this post but since the artist probably owns them, he...

A question on the history of Blue Kettles. We've seen a couple of the rare and fantastic "light blue"/"robin's egg"/"Tiffany Blue" kettles from old. (Troy's pic): And we are familiar with the relatively common "Cobalt Blue" that is currently and previously available. Has there...

I have a simple question for those who regularly use a OTx grill. How often do you clean the interior of your OT kettle bowl by some method other than simply opperating the ash sweep and emptying the fallen ash?

I picked a red EE Master Touch on craigslist this week. It looked to be in great shape from the photos. I was hoping it was the proverbial "granny drives the cadillac twice a month whether it needs it or not". The better analogy would be "We use our truck every day - and change the oil every...

This is entirely a hypothetical question and comes with a lot of assumptions. But let's assume you were in the market for buying a New wsm for whatever reason. How much of a premium would you pay to get it in one of the weber colors? Say red, blue or green for arguments sake. I think I...

I am not near the stoker today to try this out, but has anyone used a Rock's food probe as the blower control sensor instead of using a short pitsensor? I literally mean using a food probe on the grate, rather than in food. Hypothetically, let's say your pit sensor broke mid cook or did not...

Take a look at this stokerlog graph. At 8:45 I fired up the cooker, and then went to turn the stoker and stoker log on. By the time stoker booted up a minute later, my temp was a little over 100, and I had set a target temp of 250 for the entire duration. You can see the initial but slight...

I was exchanging a couple emails with a BBQ buddy about a grey kettle that he found on CL, in response to my earlier plea about finding colored kettles. We got to taling about the origin of this one, and whether it was simply an aged black one or a true graybeard. Naturally, I have read the...

And I spent 5 minutes cleaning it up with a paper towel and some Dawn. Here it is: How did I do? Oh I almost forgot! It came with a free 22 inch version too. I haven't cleaned that one yet, but neither were very dirty ......

Is anyone else having an issue where the wifi connection on the wifi stoker drops, very very frequently? I would say it stays up for 10-15 minutes then drops, never to return unless I power off reset. It comes back on line after powering up, and drops again in 10 minutes. Trying to diagnose...

Hey guys, obviously I will reach out to Kenny and John, but they are pretty busy these days it seems. So in the interest of time ... Does anyone know if they have an option to send in the old white box controller plus a fee for a wifi upgrade to the black box? Couldn't see it on the web site...

I know that a 10cfm fan is, at the very least OVERKILL for a WSM18. I use it on my 22 and it works perfectly, and OF COURSE the 5cfm is the right size for the 18. But ... What would happen if you tried to use a 10cfm stoker on a WSM 18, assuming your adapter was tight fitting? I have this...

Let me start by saying, I have always used Kingsford blue bag exclusively for my charcoal needs, regardless of which of my cookers I was using. (The only real exception was the bull market on Rancher from a few years ago where they were practically giving it away). I never understood people...

I know that, in the past, running a blower and probe on the same extension cable (via a splitter) caused problems (particularly when the blower would come on.) I seem to recall however that this was addressed, perhaps via a firmware update at some point. Can anyone confirm to me that at...

I have a 2008 WSM 18. If I order the 2009+ version water pan, will it fit? I understand it is larger, more in line with the brinkmann charcoal size.

There are 3 or 4 threads I found on here relating to using a portable power station for your stoker (or guru) when you do not have access to hard wired electric (at a competiton or camping for example). If you don't have a generator, using a portable battery pack may be a viable option. I...

I have encountered my first hurdle with stokerlog. It does not want to send emails, whether they be text to my phone or to my gmail account. Neither works. Interestingly, twitter updates work just fine. There is nothing useful in the log file that I see. Even though it says the email log...

I ordered a Stoker from Rock's a few weeks ago. When I ordered, they advised me a portion of my order would not be in until later the next week. The duration between the time I placed the order to the day it was delivered was 17 days. I will use the stoker for both home cooks on my WSM22 as...
