Elky Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Have any of you ever had a bad coal?I was lighing the first coal and maybe 2.5 minutes after getting the usual results, it seamed like the coal died. My bowl is pretty small so it usualy takes only one. Anyway instead of getting gray and ashy like usual, it kinda when flakey and black. Did I just mess up lighing it, or was it maybe just a bad one?P.S. It was a 3 Kings Quicklight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bound to happen. At least the rest of the roll is ok! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
