Analyze This!
« on: March 22, 2016, 05:07:28 PM »
What do you all make of it? I see knobs on the right and what looks slightly WSMish on the lid. It appears to be black traditional weber porcelain. Ruling out ceramic? Almost like the shape of a derby hat. Thoughts?

It's a double steel walled kamado.

I know of the original thread, but seems the video is clearer this time. Or is it just me and my geeked out excitement?

That flat edge looks like the kettle bowl before they roll the bead

What the heck is that knob on the right? Temp control, pellet feed? These boys are good at marketing!

Doesn't look like it had a table, which would really surprise me.

Oh, they probably gonna have a table you can buy for it. A lightweight double walled stainless/porcelain kettle would be extremely efficient. Heck that is what makes the old single wall kettles such a great grill. You cook same food with less charcoal on a Weber Kettle. And you can set it up to cook a lot of different ways. If they had some new space age lightweight impervious insulating material that outperforms ceramic sealed in the inside walls so no grease or water could get in, and rust, or burn between the walls. That would be a nice flavorizer! This thing is gonna have to be tested. Weber needs to come here for new grill designs.

I'm thinking it's not even going to be double walled....just a flat lid to kettle surface with gaskets to provide a better seal....will probably also cut down on warranty replacements from leaky lids.  Using single wall would make it a lot more affordable.  And maybe a WSM-ish door on the bottom half to make it easier to empty ash than all of the other eggs on the market.  The gas assist box on the side looks a bit bigger than it needs to be just for gas assist....maybe an ATC built in?

Whatever it is, it looks like it's going to be black. I don't think we're going to see any colors on this one.

This is probably the most insightful prediction.
