Affordable cast heat diffusers, but really need DIY finishing
4 Stars
Affordable cast heat diffusers, but really need DIY finishing
For the price these are great cast iron heat diffusers for gas stoves, but the typical Lodge finishing always leaves a lot to be desired and the pre seasoning needs to be stripped for obvious reasons listed below.OUT OF BOX CONDITION: for those new to Lodge their pre-seasoning sucks. It is basic and crude, can't really build a decent seasoning on top of it, and only pre-season their iron in order to prevent rusting during shipping and storage. However once you strip away their cheap seasoning you start to notice actual rust spots either covered at the factory or building up since it left the warehouse. that is why Lodge cast is so cheap, in addition to their rough sand-cast texture. However, if you know how to build a new layer of pre-seasoning and maintain it properly (very important) they are great affordable cookware and will last a lifetime, literally.DIY FINISHING AND RESEASONING: i stripped both trivets using Easy-Off oven cleaner a couple of rounds (let soak in the foam overnight, wipe dry, that's one round - see first pics). There was rust hiding under the factory seasoning on the edge of one of them where the raw iron was exposed when ground at the factory (see pic). However the grinder missed a noticeable round pointy burr on the edge of the other trivet that was dangerous and almost cut my finger (see pic). i ground down all edge surfaces super smooth using a dremel oxide grinding stone, pointy burr gone! I also wanted a smoother finish to prevent unnecessary abrasions on other cookware so i used a drill disc sander with 80, 120 and 240 grit discs on both sides. This sanding didn't eliminate the pock marks and minor divets but it did smooth out the factory sand texture a lot. This sanding also helped eliminate almost all the residual factory seasoning. Once the raw iron was washed cleaned and dried i baked on 4 layers of new seasoning using coconut oil, gave the trivets had a nice dark bronze hue once finished (see pics).COOKING PERFORMANCE: i used the trivets on gas burners as heat diffusers to dissipate hot spots when using other cast iron pans and grills. copper diffusers are better but way too expensive. The trivets work great underneath my Lodge griddle/ grill over both burners. While they don't reduce hot-spots altogether they do help even out the browning when making pancakes on the griddle side. I also found they help reduce overheating and burning as well. But i found they are essential when heating a Moka pot of coffee on a gas stove. Before, over a raw burner, the Moka pot takes 7 min to heat up but the coffee but sometimes has a slight burned taste and the coffee would shoot out of the vent holes too quickly. With the diffuser on same heat setting the coffee takes 10 min to heat up, but doesnt burn and slowly oozes and bubbles out of the Moka vents evenly so its less messy to check progress. So much better, plus offers an even surface for the pot to rest on (see pic).PROS: once re-seasoned properly they do diffuse heat effectively on a gas burner. excellent diameter, cover an entire standard burner. good overall design, heat distributes evenly to edges for the most part because of holes. price is amazing. Trivet feet also help "hook" onto burner grills and prevent them from sliding around.CONS: they take a while to heat up effectively, and consequently add time to your cast iron pan or griddle warm up times to get them up to temp. The factory finish really sucks, hides rust spots and has random rough edges that could be dangerous when handling. Finish gets discolored over time, especially in centers due to exposure to raw gas flame and direct heat.OVERALL: for they price they are a no-brainer as a basic heat diffuser, especially for using Moka pots on a gas flame burner. Just learn how to strip, re-season and maintain cast iron before you buy. And if you got the tools and time grind and sand them smooth, please!

È esattamente quello che sembra: una piastra di ghisa che può essere utilizzata come descritto nell'annuncio, ma anche come piastra sottopentola, come frangifiamma sui fornelli di cucina ed, infine, come graticola per la cottura di piccole bistecche sulla brace. Posizionata direttamente sulla brace e lasciata arroventare, diventa un'efficace supporto per la cottura di piccole bistecche (neanche tanto piccole)

Il ne supporte pas la chaleur. Je l’ai mis sur la flamme du gaz pour m’en servir comme diffuseur de chaleur (le plus petit feu). En moins de cinq minutes, il a explosé en deux morceaux qui ont volés dans la cuisine. Il avait bel aspect. C’est de la fonte épaisse. C’est robuste et fiable se dit-on. La marque est réputée. Il inspirait confiance, mais c’est c’en en fait une dangereuse camelote.
