I have a MES Digital 30 model with the SS and Window. I also own an AMNPS.
I am having issues getting it to burn all the way. I've only had it work once in 4 attempts. In the middle of attempt #5.
What I have tried...
#1- on mid rack. Lit for 5 minutes. Went out. Relit or 10 minutes. Burnt out.
#2 - lit for 10 mns. After research, I put it on top of the water pan (no water in it). Remove chip loader, pull out hip tray 1.5 inches. Burned through.
#3 - tried same as #2. More food and I think drippings put it out.
#4 - tried same as #2... Was a meatloaf in a pan so didn't bother with tent. Pulled chip loader out halfway... Chip tray 1.5 inches out. Burn out quickly.
#5 - Lit for 12 minutes... Same placement as 2. Chip loader pulled all the way out. Foil tent leaving about 4 inches of space in place on AMNPS. Seems to be going out.
I don't think the issue s wih moisture as they've been in sealed bags. I'm going to Che k in a bit and see the status... Of not burn g, I'm going o pull the tray and try nuking them, and then relighting.
Anyone have by other tips?
