In this article I would like to share my experience buying the diy4 Rotisserie kit from Flaming Coals.
Even though it will be a while before I can put any meat on a rotisserie, I had to buy the kit now. I needed it because I have to measure the motor to the exact size. I need these measurements to help me create a steel enclosure for the motor. This will enable me to use the motor at 3 different heights.
Flaming Coals
Why Flaming Coals? I have seen their products in use at many restaurants in Brisbane and decided to look at their products. The rotisserie kit is made from Stainless Steel and therefore is a match BRIAR's core requirement and that is to make a grill using all Stainless Steel.
Unboxing
My first impression was positive. Delivery from Flaming Coals was quick and reasonably priced, considering it was couriered from Melbourne to Brisbane. I also called their customer support line before buying it and asked a few questions to make sure I buy the right thing. Very friendly service.
The quality of packaging was good and they came up with a good way of sending a 1.6m steel rod in the mail!
How I will use the Rotisserie Kit
Below are a few renders to show how I will use the diy4 Rotisserie Kit. I have designed an enclosure for the Rotisserie motor on the side wall of the grill. The motor will be stored in a cupboard when I am not using the rotisserie and the enclosure will be covered with a steel plate.
You might have noticed that a 1.6m skewer will never fit in there... Thats right, I will cut the skewer to size (1.32m) and trim the tip on a lathe to suit my installation. The cooking grids below will also be removed when I do a big roast.
