    Reviving a MES 30 --> PID

    ...to LOVE how much better your smoker is once rewired and running with a PID. If you need to know some good P-I-D values and how to use an Auber PID (the manual is confusing) check out this page: https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/setting-auber-pid-temp-time-and-other-values.318849/...

    Supllueer Smoke Generator

    This is an older post but I have that smoke generator. It's very nice. The condensate trap works well and you get clean smoke from it. I put wood chips in a pellet tube, light the top of the tube and set it in the chamber. Keeps it cleaner than putting the chips in without it. I also have a...

    PID Troubles

    I use this setting on my Auber WS-1510ELPM. If P=0 no matter the other I and D settings, then it's an on off controller at set temp. In the setting above the controller is full power closed circuit 1 degree below set temp then 1/2 degree below set temp switches for 50% power and off at set temp...

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    I'm glad the info helped! That PID "kit" seems fine but it is not a complete PID controller. You would have to still get a good number of components, a enclosure, and do a little fabricating on the enclosure to make everything install and fit together to make a complete controller. It's a fun...

    Sous Vide Jumbo Chicken Breasts

    ...so I was wondering about Reuteri Yogurt tartness? I like the tartness, others not so much. I have a 2 quart slow cooker and use my Auber PID controller WS-1510ELPM with their no carryover setting of P=4, I=0 and D=40 and holds to the degree at 110*F. I pasteurize the 2% milk to 180*F...

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    Thanks, definitely good info. I'm planning on the 2 probes, and definitely the free hanging one. One thing I am worried about now, and I just thought of it, but what if my MES heating element is bad, and that's actually the culprit; not the controller?? I need to see if Auber has a return...

    Just Pulled the Trigger on Auber AW-1520H

    I got my first MES in 2017 from Cabelas on a Black Friday sale for $129 and then got my second MES 30 in 2018 at Walmart on closeout for $69 plus 2yr replacement thrown in for free because it was a floor model.Sold the first one for $50 and few years later found an Auber 1211H at the local...

    MES Randomly Shuts Off

    ...that is 100x better than your MES when it was brand new. It makes a smoker that performs like electric ones that cost over $1k where an Auber PID only runs about $160. Yeah $160 is no small amount but you really are transforming your MES into a $1k+ performing beast that is really a whole...

    R.I.P.

    ...same you just put yours on his MES and boom working controller on a working MES. Finally, there is always the simple rewire and buying an Auber PID controller to have an MES that performs better than $1,000 smokers at the price of less than a new MES by far. It really is simple to get your...

    Tired in Tennessee

    Welcome from Iowa! I have an analog Mes 30... you will easily have 25 to 30 degree temp swings in both directions with one. Now add an Auber pid to it and you'll be spot on in temp control! Ryan

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    It's actually much simpler than that. You're rewiring your MES to bypass its controller and basically turn it in to an always-on heater. This effectively disables/isolates the OEM controller on your MES. I removed mine and tucked its cable down in to the hole it comes out of on my MES...

    Reviving a MES 30 --> PID

    Yeah, from what I can tell, even the oem controller was meh. So I ordered the WiFi Auber one. Happened to be on sale for Labor Day weekend also. Basically saved shipping cost. But I'll be able to control it much like I do my pellet grill as well. I'm the meantime, putting it back together...

    Cheese is gone

    I just received a auber pid for it so that should help. I have a Bradley Smoker and it’s hard to regulate the temperature

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    Page 15 of this thread gives me everything I need for the rewire. I am assuming the connector on the Auber will plug right into the MES connector on top? Thank you!

    Smoked Sausage, Finally.

    Single pass on a 7mm plate. That is my Auber PID controller. Controls the smoker temp in staed of the cheap MES electronics. Thank you!! Appreciate the kind words, but we've seen the food you make so I'm sure you can do it. Thanks!

    I need a new rig!

    I'm also on the bandwagon for buying an Auber PID. This one with the multipurpose sensor is the least expensive option that will definitely handle the electrical power pull of an MES40: https://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=14_28&products_id=110 Do the simple rewire...

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    The Amazon PID showed up today and I'll return that tomorrow. The Auber should be here tomorrow also. In the meantime I can probably start on the rewire. I have an MES30, along with a Traeger and an Oklahoma Joe barrel smoker. Each has their pros and cons but I can't do without my MES for doing...

    masterbuilt model mb20076718 smoker not heating

    ...for MES recently. I'm not sure you would find one for your model though, or how interchangable they may be. The rewire and using an Auber PID controller is pretty much always an amazing option. You are also in luck that your rewire is even simpler than many because you have "clips" that...
