Elasticsearch-curator - Deleting indices which are older than an hour

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I am having some indices in elasticsearch whose naming format is elk-console-YYYY-MM-DDtHH. For example:-

elk-console-2016-03-30t14
elk-console-2016-03-30t16

I want to delete all indices which are more than 1 hour old using curator. So I tried executing the below command:-

curator --host localhost delete indices --older-than 1 --time-unit hours --timestring '%Y-%m-%dt%H'

But it is giving me the following ouput:-

2016-04-22 16:27:36,049 INFO      Job starting: delete indices
2016-04-22 16:27:36,058 INFO      Pruning Kibana-related indices to prevent accidental deletion.

Can some one please help me what timestring format should I use in my case?
