They didn't think it was actually for sale -said it just looked like a return sitting on the floor.

I break those too easily. I use fire brick and cast pans.

Re: Vision Kamado Owners Thread - Available @ Costco
Fire bricks work great as deflectors. I use a kamado Joe heat deflector and the Stokes pizza stone. My stokes pizza stone is 2+ years old, no issues as long as it's not on direct fire.GAM wrote:I break those too easily. I use fire brick and cast pans.

How do you set up fire bricks? Not sure I really get it - do you lay them on the coals?

Lay your fire bricks on your lower grate, pizza stone on upper grate.naes100 wrote:How do you set up fire bricks? Not sure I really get it - do you lay them on the coals?
Or, fire bricks and pizza stone on upper grate. I can post photos later.

Re: Vision Kamado Owners Thread - Available @ Costco
Has anyone replaced their thermometer yet? I fired up the vision Friday night just to clean up the insides a bit, and when I went to light the chimney on Saturday morning, the thermometer was very dead. Are there decent upgrades out there? It seems that a lot of people just ignore the dome thermometer and go for a Maverick.

I use 2 -4 depending on what the cook is. I sometimes lay them on the fire box and some times on the grate.naes100 wrote:how many bricks do you generally use - 4?
They can also stand and reise the grate.
