4.1 First Use and Curing

Before cooking food, it is recommended to perform a low-temperature burn-in to cure the ceramic and gaskets. Load a small amount of charcoal, light it, and maintain a temperature between 100-150°C (212-300°F) for 1-2 hours with both vents slightly open. This helps to set the gaskets and remove any manufacturing residues.

4.2 Tænding af trækul

1. Open the lid and both the top and bottom vents fully.
2. Place a small amount of lump charcoal or briquettes on the charcoal grate. Do not overfill.
3. Use a charcoal starter (e.g., electric starter, natural firelighters) to ignite the charcoal. Avoid liquid accelerants.
4. Allow the charcoal to burn for 10-15 minutes until a small bed of glowing embers forms.

The Kamado's temperature is controlled by adjusting the airflow through the top and bottom vents. Small adjustments can lead to significant temperature changes.

• Increasing Temperatur: Open both vents wider to increase airflow and heat.
• Dekretasing Temperatur: Close both vents slightly to restrict airflow and reduce heat.
• Opretholdelse af temperatur: Once the desired temperature is reached, make small adjustments to the vents to maintain it.
