Hey all I'm fairly new to Smoking and posting this forum and have a question.. I've read in several posts that if you mess with the top vent too much there is a chance to build up a Creosote layer and taste in which you have to scrub out to be rid of it. Normally after smokes I still have numerous partial and non lit coals still in the ring. I have been closing all vents until they burn out. Is this acceptable and or will I build up a creosote layer to deal with at a later time? Should I just let them all burn until done and use new charcoal each smoke? That seems expensive. I appreciate your responses in advance. Thank You, Happy smoking!! Terry
