!
Kibo is the summit of the Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa. As a child I lived on the
slopes of this majestic mountain. It is a sleeping volcano, and the place where "
I learnt to build my first fire.!
I hope you will enjoy many great adventures in outdoor cooking with KIBO Grill. "
Treat it well and it will last you a lifetime."

Operation"
Cast Iron:
Cast iron will last long and age well when taken care of. Keep your grill dry and a little
greasy to prevent surface rust. Store it in a dry place."
See Cleaning and Care on page 19."
"
Before First Use:
Be sure to season the Top Grill before first use. "
See Seasoning the Top Grill on page 17."
____"
Making a fire:
Place charcoal / briquettes or firewood on the Bottom Grill."
Light up a fire using your preferred method: e.g. tinder sticks, a fire starter block or
some fire starter fluid. See the instructions for these products."
During cooking, charcoal / briquettes or firewood can be added through the Fire
Door, which also provides access to the fire with the Poker - Handle."
To stoke the fire, air flow can be adjusted by shifting the vent handle on the Ash Tray."
Moving it to the right will increase air flow (to increase the heat of the fire); to the left
will decrease air flow (to temper the fire).!
"
Extinguishing the fire:!
To extinguish the fire DO NOT poor water over or on to (parts of) the grill. This may
result in heat shock of the cast iron, which may result in cracks."
You can leave the fire to burn out, put a (fireproof) lid over it, or extinguish it by
pouring dry sand over the coals."
Only use water or a fire extinguisher in an emergency."
Grilling:"
Once the Top Grill has been seasoned and the fire is hot, you can start grilling your
food. %

English

Wipe, spray or brush a thin layer of food-grade oil on the Top Grill before grilling your
vegetables, fish or meat. NEVER do this over a hot fire due to risk of flames."
The temperature required on the Top Grill can be obtained by:"
-#The amount of charcoal / briquettes or firewood used."
-#Opening or closing the air vent on the Ash Tray."
-#Adjusting the height of the Top Grill. It’s height can be set in two positions, #
#high and low."

ashes may fall, or oil may drip from the bottom.%

Seasoning the Top Grill"
Before first use:
Cast iron cookware needs to be seasoned before first use. This process gives it a
non-stick surface and prevents surface rust."
KIBO Grill comes pre-seasoned with a food-grade mineral oil, but it is wise to season
the Top Grill as set out below:"
There are two ways to season the Top Grill: the ‘artisanal’ way and the ‘quick and
dirty’ way. "
The first will give you more control over your non-stick layer, the second is for people
with less patience who want to fire the grill up right away. You choose!"
1. The artisanal way of seasoning your grill:
For this process you need a cotton rag and a conditioner like The Windmill®
seasoning/cast iron conditioner (TWM090), and a regular kitchen oven."
Follow these steps:!
1. Clean the Top Grill with hot or boiling water, then wipe offand leave to dry
completely.!
2. Heat the oven to 120° Celsius, place the product in the oven and leave it for about
60 mins. The heat will open the pores of the cast iron so all moisture can evaporate.
This is important because moisture in cast iron can result in surface rust.!
3. When the Top Grill is hot, wipe a thin layer of food-grade conditioner onto the cast
iron. Be sure to touch al sides of the grill.!
4. Place the grill in the oven and heat up to 180° Celsius. Once the grill starts to
smoke, it can be left to cool down.!
5. Repeat steps 3 to 4 at least three times. The more you repeat these steps, the
better the cast iron will be seasoned."
Your Top Grill is now ready for use."
!
!
2. The quick and dirty way of seasoning your grill:"
!
For this process you need food-grade oil and a bbq brush."

English

Follow these steps:!
!
1. Clean the Top Grill with hot or boiling water, then wipe dry.!
2. Light up KIBO Grill to a medium-hot and place the Top Grill on top. Leave the grill
to heat up for 30 mins, until the flames have disappeared and the grill has heated up
evenly. Moisture may evaporate from the cast iron; this is important because moisture
on cast iron can result in surface rust.!
3. Brush a thin layer of food-grade oil on the Top Grill. Fully brush the top surface and
in between the grill grates. NEVER do this over a hot fire due to risk of flames.!
4. Leave the grill over the fire until all oil has burnt into the cast iron.!
5. Repeat steps 3 - 4 at least three times. The more you repeat these steps, the better
the cast iron will be seasoned."
Your Top Grill is now ready for use.!

Cleaning and care"
DO NOT use soap:
Never wash the Top Grill with any soap or detergent. Do not put in the dishwasher."
Use only hot or boiling water to rinse, then wipe offand leave to dry completely before
storing it in a dry place."
Seasoning:
KIBO Grill is made from cast iron. All parts are pre-seasoned in the factory by baking a
thin layer of mineral oil in to the cast iron. This provides initial protection against
surface rust."
Be sure to season the Top Grill before first use. See Seasoning the Top Grill on page
17."
!
Maintenance:"
Every time you cook, a thin layer of oil and/or fat will burn into the cast iron and
improve its cooking and non-stick qualities. !
Never remove that layer completely by using soap, detergents or by placing the grill in
the dishwasher. If needed rinse the grill with hot or boiling water only, then wipe off
and leave to dry completely before storing it in a dry place."
Tip: always store the Top Grill with a thin layer of food-grade oil..!
!
Ageing:"
Cast iron will age over time. The more you use it, the more beautiful it will become.
But it needs some treatment every now and then:"
The top grill should always be kept a little greasy (only use food-grade oil). This is the
surface you will cook on, and it is vital to prevent any rust on the surfaces.!
Other parts that become extremely hot, like the Fire Bowl, will burn offtheir protective
seasoning after a certain amount of time, subjecting them to surface rust. To prevent
this, spray or wipe them with mineral or food-grade oil.!
!
NB: next time you light up the fire, excess oil might cause some smoke.!
