Jay Bee 8 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I haven’t been able to grill for several weeks due to my schedule and the weather around here, so I was ecstatic to finally get a chance to fire up the grill after work. I get home and lift the lid and everything is covered in a yellow “mold”. Does anyone have any ideas how to get this cleaned up? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Goodfella 2 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Fire it up. Get the grill up to a high temp to burn off the mold. I would do it for at least an hour or more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dogstar 35 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Jay, is your Kamado covered? Do you leave the vents open or closed? I haven't had that issue here in SoCal, but I do have a cover on my KJ Classic III, and I leave the vents open. I also leave the lid open enough that the gaskets are not compressed when not in use.

Jay Bee 8 Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 I just got the grill This summer and the cover hasn’t arrived yet. I left the vents closed due to some heavy rains we have been getting. Normally I grill 2-3 times a week, but haven’t had a chance the last few weeks. I was thinking about scrubbing the ceramics with warm water and a brush? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IMAVGAN 5 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Sounds like a recipe for disaster to use water on porous ceramic surfaces.... TKOBBQ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
