Hey Bruce @St Paul Steam, what were the dimensions of this new burner that you found? And what’s the smallest diameter you can trim it down to? Wondering if it will work in my new D.K.
I had to disassemble another heating plate to know , here is the information the OD is 3 7/8" & the smallest (safest) it can be trimmed down to is 3 3/16" & that leaves a thin cast wall around the heating element. the heating element has a threaded post that can be used or removed (the cast heating plate is threaded for it)
