Using fresh charcoal for each new cook is recommended. However, if you wish to reuse charcoal from the previous cook you can do so as this will not affect the unit, please note, used charcoal may retain flavors from the previous cook.
How do I remove the staining or corrosion on the K1 air vent?
The air vent is made of alloy, therefore using an alloy polish is recommended.
Will the cover keep my K1 dry?
Our grill covers are water-resistant and are made of 450 GSM UV protected material with a water-resistant lining. Please be aware that humidity and condensation can form between the cover and the grill depending on your climate and location. It is important to remove the cover and wipe the grill down once a month to remove any excess moisture that has potentially built-up during storage.
Troubleshooting
Where can I find basic troubleshooting information?
Basic Troubleshooting information on the K1 can be found within the user manual.
What is the best way to build heat in my K1?
The K1 is built to retain heat and only requires a very small amount of charcoal to reach +250°C/482°F. We recommend starting with 200-300grams (7 oz – 10.5 oz) of charcoal. Overloading the K1 with greater volumes of coal is not recommended as this will result in a waste of coal and can result in product damage and / or spoilt food.
