Egg Maintenance

After reading about @Solson005 and his gasket replacement I decided to do some egg maintaining, so I did a clean burn and a gasket replacement. This is the first clean burn that I have done and all I can say is WOW. The egg is crazy clean. I let it cool down and replaced the gasket and realigned the dome after watching the video on u-tube many time this morning. Right now I am having withdrawal because I want to cook but know I need to let the gasket glue cure for a bit.

    You have learned that age old lesson - "Cleanliness is next to Godliness" or so my Grandmother always said, and I'm not doubting her word.  A clean egg is a happy egg.

    Glad I could help getting your egg all cleaned up. I just roasted some veggies for salsa and guacamole and liked the fresh gasket every time I opened the dome. if only they would stay that way oh well..

    Egg gaskets are like children and puppies, if only they too would stay that way.
