Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a Lotus Grill different from other charcoal BBQs?
Regular charcoal BBQs can take about 40 minutes to reach the optimum cooking temperature. The ingenious fan system of the Lotus Grill means you can be ready to cook in just 3-4 minutes. Further, the fan is powered by AA batteries (included), which means you don't need electricity or gas to run your Lotus Grill. And because it is easy to dismantle, most parts can be cleaned in the dishwasher.
How does the Lotus Grill Hybrid work?
The Lotus Grill Hybrid has the additional functionality of being able to cook with gas. To use it, swap the charcoal container for the burner container with an integrated gas pipe. Remove the outer silicone plug in the base, and attach the brass adapter that enables hookup to an EN 417 butane gas canister (not included). The grill is ready for use after 60 seconds.
Why buy a charcoal BBQ over a gas one?
Charcoal is a natural product and the amount used in a Lotus Grill will be more cost-effective than gas. The entire weight of your Lotus Grill is only 4kg.
What is the dial on the front of the Lotus Grill used for?
The Lotus Grill has an internal fan which draws air in. This speeds up wait time and reduces smoke which makes the Lotus Grill especially desirable for patios and balconies (please check that the appropriate building meets fire safety regulations first).
How long do the batteries for the Lotus Grill last for?
The batteries supplied with the purchase of your Lotus Grill will last approximately 40-60 hours. Run time of replacement batteries will vary depending on the quality of batteries used.
What fuel does Lotus Grill use?
We recommend using the Lotus Grill Beech Charcoal. This is a clean burning, low-smoke, CO2-neutral charcoal that will also ensures the food tastes better. For the Lotus Grill hybrid, gas canisters can be purchased at any hardware store.
How do I clean my Lotus Grill?
The Lotus Grill is easily disassembled. Once excess fat has been removed from both the grill plate and the inner bowl these items can be placed in a dishwasher or hand washed. Avoid using abrasive cleaning tools as these may scratch the stainless steel. For stubborn stains, you may soak the grill plate or stainless steel bowl overnight or use a stainless steel cleaning product.
LotusGrill recommends cleaning your BBQ after every use to avoid baked-on fat and juices which will be harder to remove later. Because the Lotus Grill has been designed to use reflective heat it will not work to its best possible standard if it is not clean.
