My Large Big Green Egg is around 17 years old and in Eggcellent condition- Had a chance to cook on a friend of mines new LBGE- One thing I noticed on his was the exterior temp of the egg was what seemed quite a bit warmer than mine when operating @ the same internal temp, also mine seems a bit "heavier".........Anybody know what construction changes if any have been made over the years

@lkapigian interesting. I'd be curious on this as well. I'm assuming yours has the original dome and base? Fire box, fire ring, etc original?LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL

does yours have a vertical seam down the side of the dome and base. 17 years puts it around the time period that they did, its a mold seam, they may have been different thicknesses at or around that time

@NPHuskerFL all original except the gasket @fishlessman , I don't see a seam. The dimples are much less pronounced than today'sVisalia, Ca @lkapigian
