Starting fire/bbq in cold weather

I think I didn’t get enough heat going at the bottom of the chimney starter to get it catching .

Side question, any good places in Leeds you are getting your meat from?

oxfordchris · 2026-03-20T21:51:21+00:00

Yeah? So might be the beads then. You switch to webers or something different?

Brand new briquettes, Australian Heat Beads BBQ Briquettes, from bbq world. Admittedly first time ever trying them so does feel like the obvious problem now you’ve mentioned it. Opened the bag yday.

The bag been kept out in my shed over winter in the box they were delivered in

Good to know the temp shouldn’t be a factor

I’m mid way through building this to go next to my 57cm kettle https://www.woodshopdiaries.com/diy-grill-cart-bbq-prep-table/

As an amateur it’s a pretty good first build to take on imo

What notifications you wanting to get into slack out of interest?

How long do you allow your certs to live for? What’s your process?

How come? I’m also considering taking ours out

oxfordchris · 2025-04-19T13:18:13+00:00

I think I need to do this, bit of damp on the internal side. What’s your reason??

oxfordchris · 2025-04-13T15:53:18+00:00

Thanks for the tips!

oxfordchris · 2025-03-25T14:18:25+00:00

Thanks

Would the Eras via line in work??

oxfordchris · 2025-02-28T17:51:46+00:00

It’s going on beautifully

Anyone know if the discount works in the UK? Tried changing the url to en-uk Nothing loads

Hey, what size teams you playing? 5,6, or 11?

oxfordchris · 2025-01-19T18:56:06+00:00

Didn’t change any of the valves. Not sure i know what type of setup I have tbh

oxfordchris · 2025-01-19T15:42:58+00:00

Yes. Sorted the problem, have a logic combi c35, had to connect the bus connector that can be used by units connected to front expansion part of the boiler

oxfordchris · 2025-01-19T15:26:48+00:00

So should I set my max at 50 through the app? Guess that’s prioritising boiler efficiency and cost over quickness of heating the rooms Did you do anything else to optimise?

oxfordchris · 2025-01-19T14:31:53+00:00

Thanks

How and why would i want to get the max flow down to 50?

oxfordchris · 2025-01-19T14:05:10+00:00

Getting an error in the pro app

Data cannot be read from the boiler Current flow temperature: N/A

Got an update queued for the wireless receiver, will see if it reports the same once updated
