[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1325368, member: 25383"] salt melts at 1460 degrees, and it almost four times the temp you need. Putting that aside, it can be extremely dangerous! One drop of water can be a disaster (think one bead of sweat). I have worked around molten salt quite a bit, and never liked being close to it. Still at 1460 degrees, it's perfect for steel and nothing else. The next hurdle to climb is getting the salt to melt! Your not going to get there with your back yard grill. I would never do it indoors as it can be a fire hazard. If it goes bananas from a drop of water, the spray will set the house on fire. Plus send everybody to the burn unit. Most folks that use the stuff have a huge Halon fire suppression system cause this stuff doesn't play around. gary [/QUOTE]
