    Coffee more for taking out a smell, fish for example... spuds don't really leave any smell, coffee unnecessary...
    I prefer to get the anti scent BB uses, seems to do the job the best. Coffee only in a pinch..
    Washout is required, can't get it clean without it, unless I suppose you had very dry potatoes (I never have)

    Yeah there wasn't really much of a smell. The potatoes were somewhat dry. I cleaned it up very good. Shouldn't even be more than the 11 minutes they wash it out normally. We'll see.

    Frito-Lay floats them out of the trailer and it's usually not bad afterwards.

    It’s the wood chips they use to prevent some spud damage that you see mostly .. without them it’s broken spuds in the grooves often

    Cleaned it well enough to not get charged extra at the BB. Took 2 hours to sweep though lol. Could use the workout so not even mad. All is well and off to enjoy a week at home.
