Just got this in the mail today. So boy did I try it out. Got my fingers crossed. Had my 2.5 year old grand son over to baby set. Man does he ever have energy. lol So I stayed pretty busy all afternoon.









Came a long way to get to my house--





came with some dust--



missed a bunch of pics due to babysetting--



you can see the thin smoke in the above pic, this was right as I was going to stop smoking, just around 3 hours--



did a bunch of cheeses--





this shows how far 3 hours of burning and smoking went , could of smoked 10 more hours I think--





Let them set about an hour, then vac sealed and into the fridge for a couple of weeks. They set oak dust with it, but I ordered some apple from a different site and used it today. My temp in the MES stayed at 59 or 60 degrees the whole smoke. The dust burner worked perfect. I got a feeling I am going to love this little duster.

That looks great! Looks like something that could be home built if a guy wanted to try. What was the cost on it?

Now that as cool a contraption as I've seen in awhile! Fine looking cheese too. My wife won't eat smoked cheese so I haven't bothered to do any just for myself. Might try it if I had something like that.

Hmm that is new to me. I might have to look into one of those. Right now I just do the old soldering gun in the tin can trick.

Here is the link--http://www.macsbbq.co.uk/CSG.html

Total cost was $ 43.28
It is very well made, sturdy, should last a long time. If you like smoked cheese it would pay for itself very quickly.

Going by the temp you stated, you made a great purchase of a cold smoker. The cheese looks great. Points to you my friend.

Dude, you had me totally freaked out when I first started to read this.

The cheese looks great. Hope it turns out tasty, since you did a ton of it. I think I saw treege using one of these.

I've used the 2 briquet method in my wsm, but just ordered one of these as well. Will certainly pay for itself after just a few loads of cheese, and not fighting the temp spikes will be wonderful.

Where has anyone bought other flavors of dust?

thanks.
