I purchased a Smokin It 3.5 pro Series last month with the PID and can tell you that it cannot determine or regulate its own temp if the outside ambient temp is freezing. I've done extensive testing and find wild temp fluctuations (until the unit warms up for about 3 hours) of up to 40 degrees...

I use Chopsaw's like you have but with the Mes 40 volume and 1,200 watt element vs his Mes 30 800 watt element I'm P=1 or 2 or 3, I=208 and D=210. I set the Auber to single step mode, no program and no recipes. No entering minutes it stays on the temp you last set. I set the high low alarms...

I cannot tell for sure if your Novus is but Auber is legit PID and programmable. Set it for a sausage ramp you set and it runs how you want within a tight spec. Will also run as high as you set it. 325F for ribs etc no issue for the Tex from memory. Last run was some cured dark meat turkey.

MES 40 , mailbox mod, auber PID. Best of the best for smoking fish, jerky, sausage. Just got done doing cheese. Was -2 ° out, set the auber at 40° and smoked for 4 hrs, didn't open smoker once or look at the dust tray in the mailbox.

So here my problem. I'm running a chat broil electric smoker with an Auber PID. My cook schedule is 100 degrees for an hour no smoke. Then roll smoke, 140 for an hour, 150 for an hour, 160 for an hour, then 170 until I hit an IT of 155 degrees. Problem is after about 7 hours the sticks tend to...

Good report back. As with any system there will be the tuning and learning and a rewired MES is not an exception to that rule. I think once you get your probes all sorted out you will good to go. My probe setup is that I have my auber probe on the UNDER side of the lowest smoker rack placed...

This is perfect, exactly the info and advice I needed, thank you. I'll keep you posted as to how it goes. I do like the Wi-Fi idea, but depending on the price adder I may not have the funds now to do that. Wife is not happy the MES is dead, and that we have to pay any money at all to get...

I don't remember how I bypassed the controller on mine, I do know I found the info here. Mine works great with the Auber PID, I just wonder what the max safe temp is for the box.

...have seen every part of the MES and know how to fix it all. I personally would really consider just doing the rewire and popping on Auber PID controller to transform that smoker into a beast. I always say it's like turning a golf cart into a Ferrari when you do the simple rewire and slap on a...

Which Auber PID controller do you have?

this seems to be the favourite!

Nice clean up! New smoker 😊

Don't have a MES, but what I read over and over on the forum the wiring is a big failure in the connectors and a cheap over temp sensor. Sorry I cannot withstand 40 minutes of video for 5 minutes of actual content but his theme to use a PID control is what you really need for precise temperature...

I'm just throwing this out there for those that have asked about this before, or those who like to try new things. When you add a PID controller to an electric smoker the PID sends pulses to the SSR. Some PID controllers give you a little control over those pulses but they are still digital...

100% agree with the PID. You don't HAVE to buy an Auber, but it's money well spent. I didn't splurge for the wifi model and seem to still be alive so that's a few bucks you can save if you choose that route. I love my pellet pooper more now than when I first got it, but your MES is still a...

If anyone has a chance, please give me an idea about how I might go about rewiring my Gen 2 MES40? It finally gave up the ghost. I have an Auber WST-1520H waiting in the wings for it. The 2 access panels in the rear are pictured open here: Obviously the first thing I need to do is the...

...#3 smoker cabinet and see how it actually works. My hopes are to just use the Smokin-it cabinet to provide the chamber for my meats, the Auber Pid to provide the temperature control and the Supllueer smoke generator to provide the smoke for all my smoking adventures. I still need to prove my...

@pi guy I am going to throw something out there that may be a little unconventional. I too have a MES 40" that I removed the controller on. I follwed the instructions described above. I started with an Auber SYL-3615, which is a BBQ Fan controller. Except instead of a fan I had it control a...

Howdy You cant run the novus in conjunction with the Auber. What I did was remove all the original electric (Take pics before you remove all the wires) then I wired the element to a HD extension cord which plugs into the back of the Auber. Use the Auber temp probe to operate the PID. So yes...

I am not an electronic geru but know that the controller has 4 different themistors that are the imput for the controller they are ďesigned for temp range the one i have is only designed To be used to 250deg Themistors are used in very hot applications but are designed. Different the novus I...
