minus-squarethe_artic_one@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoYou ignite the torch before you move it close to the food so all the butane should burn off. Butane evaporates at room temperature anyway so I wouldn’t expect it to be a problem. Propane is also fine which makes sense given that it’s used in grills.
