plt Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Yes as a matter of fact I do fine green and fine blue,I attended Lurecrafts open house this past weekend and spoke to Shaun and his explanation,was to make sure you temps on your pot dont exceed 325 and make sure you have a thermometer in your pot to monitor temps,sounds easy but Istill have trouble with Lee pots spiking and burning , hope this helps.
