Assuming all conditions are good, the stars line up and the corn's at the right height, what's a reasonable expectation for burn time with an AMNPS?

Thanks!

Hot smoking or cold smoking. What smoker are you using it in?

My smoker is a 44 inch Masterbuilt propane. I'd like to be able to do both hot and cold smoking with the AMNPS.

Thanks!

It will do both just fine. I get 12 hours cold smoking.

Maybe with a propane smoker you might need the tube.

I ordered my AMNPS and got it in yesterday. Cleaned it up real good and filled one row with pellets. Lit it with a propane torch and it's runnin' like a Swiss clock!

One of you guys need to reach through and slap me for not gettin' one a year ago.

Thanks, fellas!

For propane smokers the tubes do better than the mazes.
