Hello everyone. I think i am probably like a lot of other new people around here that was driven to the site researching the 560.
Of all the research i have done there are a few things that are the common, lets just say concerns.
Obviously the wifi/bt & app. sounds like the true fix to that is going to have to be an update from MB. Not surprising. This always happens with new apps.
Paint peeling and firebox burn out. These seem to me that they could possibly be addressed before they become a bigger problem. When paint peels from temp, it is usually a bond issue. My guess is most people don't notice this in the beginning because they are so giddy about having a new smoker they start with projects that don't go to super high temps causing the failure. I am also wondering if the biggest issue causing the very quick firebox burn out is a result of people not following directions and leaving the slide(s) in mistakenly or thinking they are going to be slick and out engineer the engineering causing excessive heat in the box.
I have seen the video of the stainless sleeve for the firebox. My question is, would it be feasible and/or would it make sense to run a long "cleaning" burn , say 2 hours and full tilt boogie to promote the paint failure, scrape off what does fail, prime it, and paint it with high temp paint BEFORE the first seasoning? I can't see painting with high temp paint prior to assembly working as its bond will only be as good as the bond of the layer underneath it, unless, of course, it is not a bond issue and it is an issue with the OEM paint not having a high enough temp rating.
anybody seen anything else on the rotisserie ? I have one from my Jenn Air gg that i would likt to try and retrofit into it.
