Another Newb mistake....So for the last few weeks I have been burning sulphur twice a week (one hour each)with no problems...but it dont seem to be killing the PM as much as I thought it would and its still spreading....
So I went the DIY route and bought a french fry cooker/crock pot thing and have been running it on low and it melts the pellets but I never seem to see much come out, was expecting a mist of vapor or something. So i thought maybe I wasnt cooking it hot enough.
So today I put it on the medium setting and within 5 minutes the sulphur pellets started on fire, it was a neon purple flame.....(good thing I decided to hang around and check to make sure in case something like this didnt happen)....it wasnt a raging fire, just a small vapor looking flame....luckliy I caught it right away.
Anyways, I read many DIY sulpur burner threads but no one ever said much about if it gets too hot it will catch fire....I just though turning the burner hotter may make it cook more sulphur, create more vapor....I was wrong....So just thought I would post this, something to consider when building your own burner....
