sunflower oil. !Any oxidation that does form can easily be removed using
steel wool and re-oiling The Cook Top. !The more your Arteflame is used,
the better the Cook Top will be protected by the oil that you use on it. !This
oil will actually impregnate The Cook Top and prevent oxidation.
The operating temperature of the cook top!depends on the amount of wood
that is in the fire. !As a guideline, expect the inner edge of the cook top to
reach 425F and the outer edge 250F. !425F is about the ideal temperature
to sear steaks while 250F is perfect for vegetables. !The differences in
temperature are ideal for cooking a wide variety of foods simultaneously.
MAINTENANCE
After using The Arteflame, either extinguish the fire or supervise it until it is
burned out. !Water can be used to extinguish the fire. !BEWARE of
excessive smoke, ash and steam when using water to extinguish The
Arteflame. !The Arteflame will be!very hot while the fire is burning itself out
and can remain hot for hours. An optional lid is available from our store as
well.
Grilling Tips; once the Arteflame has cooled down and the fire is out, it!can
be cleaned. !Scoop out the ashes and unburned wood and dispose of it.
!Make sure all ashes and unburned wood pieces are completely cold.
Grilling Tips; once The Arteflame is cleaned, it is a good practice to wipe
the Cook Top down with some oil. !After treating it with oil, your Arteflame is
ready for its next use. !This will also help prevent any oxidation from
forming on the Cook Top.
STORAGE
It is not necessary to store your Arteflame indoor. !Your Arteflame can be
left outside year round. !When left outside, clean out your Arteflame before
using it. !Debris like leaves, twigs or snow can accumulate in it.
