Does Copper do a Color Shift?
« on: June 05, 2015, 06:44:31 PM »
Hey, a buddy of mine is giving a serious look to the 2015 Copper Performer... but he's also starting to appreciate the color shifts he's seeing in my reds.  So he's wondering if the new coppers do any kind of color shift.  Can anyone chime in about this please?

Haven't noticed any shifts on mine either, but I've been cooking low and slow mostly.  Plan to get it up over 400 tonight with a pizza so I'll keep an eye on it.  :-)

Not sure about Coppers. However, Copper Mist (brownie) does a slight color shift depending on how hot they get.. Very slight. Crimsons most definitely do keeping with tradition of the red family.

Probably depends on amount of fuel. I guess I haven't gotten my chocolates wicked hot yet. But have noticed the shift.

Bought my Copper Performer this weekend. Only used it twice, had it up to 600 F last night and have not noticed a color shift yet. Maybe it takes time. I think it would great with some kind of color shift.

I need to take some time lapse pics of my blue to see what it does. I really want a crimson and have been close to pulling the trigger the last few days. How dark do they get?
