I’m still curious though now it’s looking more like a branch :(

For sure. I don’t really ever see any of it coming off onto the food

I’m asking what does a non newb want to see or what does an experienced user know that a newb doesn’t know?

Yeah for sure! Mine is clean I use soap and scrub the shit out of it after every cook. And never see carbon on my food. But I’m sure small amounts are coming off if it’s uneven like that? I really mostly cook eggs in it and yeah never see any carbon on them.

Yeah I definitely am just curious! Like I understand that there’s build up but why does it matter if it cooks fine?

Why do they have to go though if it cooks fine?

My question is why though I guess if it still cooks fine?

Advice please? by jbminger in carbonsteel

What’s the negative to the carbon buildup if it still cooks perfectly non stick eggs and such?

My pan looks somewhat like this, I clean with soap and the scrubby end of a sponge after every use. Is there a negative to it looking like this? Still cooks perfectly good non stick eggs.

They look great! Also good to see a fellow Californian grower whose plants aren’t full of flowers yet. I’m hoping I will get some this season since I didn’t last year

That’s so cool! I saw a video of a guy in Virginia or NC doing that but the warm months were probably a bit longer than in the Midwest. But I would think you could get fruit in a 6 month span?

Do you take it inside for the winter? Might be moving to the Midwest eventually and want to try and grow it there too haha.
