3.4.3 Time needed to heat the cooking plate
The outdoor temperature is an important factor for the time needed to heat the
   cookingplateproperly.Thistimecanrangefrom25-30minutesduringspringand 
   summerto45-60minutesduringfallandwinter.Thecookingplateis12mmthick,
   soitneedsadecentretoheattheplateproperly.
3.3.4 Removing factory oil from the cooking plate
Oncethecookingplateisreallywellheated,drizzleonoliveoilandspreaditwithakitchentowel.
The olive oil will mix with the factory oil and will make it easy to remove the factory oil. If olive oil is put
ontheplatewhenthisisnotwellheated,whatcomesoisastickyblacksubstancethatisnoteasyto
remove.Drizzleonoliveoil2-3times.Thenscrapedownthecookingplatewiththesupplementedspatula
andpushthescrapingsintothere.WealsohaveaPROspatulainourproductrangeforintensiveusein
aprofessionalenvironment.Onceallyoucanmanagetoscrapeoisbeigescrapings,thecookingplateis
cleanandreadyforuse.Simplydrizzleonoliveoiloncemoreandspreaditoutandstartcooking!
3.3.5 Managing the fire
Depending on the weather conditions and the outdoor temperature, the cooking plate will reach a
temperatureofaround300˚Contheinneredgeandaround200˚Contheouteredge.Todoso,
buildareusingthewoodcabinmethodmentionedabove.Onceyourinitialre’swoodisburning
properly, spread out the hot mass under the edges of the cooking plate and add new wood in the
middle with the bark facing up. Repeat the process for the entire duration that you wish to keep the
cooking plate hot. You will notice that it will take a lot more wood during autumn and winter to keep the
cookingplatehotthanduringspringandsummer.Ifthereisabreeze,thecookingplatewillbehottest
where the wind leaves the OFYR

Cooking Unit, i.e. in the direction of the wind. You can compensate for
this by pushing more hot coals into the opposite direction.
