Welcome, please stop by and introduce yourself. unless you are in Australia, this thread is basically 6 yrs old.

When I was in my espresso phase, I picked up citric acid at a local market. Otherwise, yes you are correct.

I don’t know if they fixed the is, but at one point you could not have spaces in your SSID. Some devices I have had to create a simple SSID on a guest network as part of the troubleshooting.

Happy birthday and good luck. I had an Anova with connection issues. It was replaced under warranty and the replacement has been great.

Kamados are a oxygen starved fuel rich environment. Too much charcoal is not the problem... too much air. I would suggest adding a starter cube. Let it burn for 10 min. Then set your vents.

Welcome, please stop by and introduce yourself.

I was in your shoes back in 2013 or 2014 when my Bigjoe was back ordered, then the next container ship was sent back to port. Once you cook on it for a couple months you will forget all about the wait. Take this time to read everything on this forum. You will be ready to go! best Ben

You couldn’t pay me ....

Welcome. Thank you for sharing! Please stop by and introduce yourself.

Welcome. Stop by and introduce yourself! as for your question, I don’t have experience with either of those. I am sure people here are more informed than I am.

I have tried some of these. I learned quickly that I like my wallets to have soft edges rather than hard edge.

This took me a while to get, more often you see smoke, but sometimes flames. Imagine you have a big fire going and you choke it down. The fire will basically “breathe” in and out the bottom vent. It can be surprising the first time you see it. Start you fire slowly, you will have the best temp control too.

Well, you are cooking and having fun. I support that. Please don’t feel like you have to leave.

Best wishes. I will be thinking of you and your family. My kids are younger than your grandson... I am just speechless. please keep us updated.
