I love reading about your stoves. I'm going to ask about your sink next. Let me start a new thread.

Jonni,

It sounds like your stove is like mine. My grates are cast iron really heavy and I just put them on one of the oven racks. I don't know if you are supposed to, but I have done it a hundred times with no bad effects.

If you have never used the self clean before, just remember. If you have something stuck on, (we usually have cheese from pizzas) it will smoke at first while it is burning off all the crud. And I usually put a light coating of vegetable oil on the sides of my racks afterwards to make them slide easier.



Blessed are those who love the soil,

Patsy

Right now I have a 2yr Amana electric flat top. Never again. We're burnt out the self-cleaning unit because we bake homemade pizza at 500' a few times a month.
Can't can on it. We use a heavy duty propane 2 burner camp stove outside.

Before I had a regular electric & a wonderful Monarch enameled yellow stove that I used to take the chill off, cook a turkey in the winter, but we didn't move it with us.

One day I hope to have a gas/propane commercial range 60", 2 ovens, 6 burners, 24" raised grill w/broiler under it. Of course I want to find it used, at a good price.
Dreaming of my ideal home.

Great topic.

Blessings,
