Found out the hard way, cleaning out the ash with my bare hands. Guess I'll get that ash tool now...

I'm glad I use the ash tool or I would have done the same thing this summer. I cooked one Saturday night and the next day I cleaned the bottom out and used the ash tool to stir the leftover lump . I dumped new lump in and went inside only to return shortly afterwards to a fully hot egg.
It's amazing how long the coals stay hot.Nowhere Indiana -
Wow, I DO use an ash tool, but dump the "ash" into a plastic bucket which I toss into the corner without a second thought.Need to rethink my processes; thanks for the head's-up!@-)_____________

I use a galvanized pail - keeps things safe, and also doubles a a hot platesetter holder.

If I close everything off before bed, mine is completely out by morning. Maybe mine seals off better than yours? Hope you're ok.Dave - Austin, TX
