    MES 40 - Plug Into Wall

    I have been using mine in the garage for 2 years. I have a over the range microwave with a built in exhaust fan. The exhaust fan is vented outside. I agree with hkeiner. The smoke that is produced when you open the door is enough to fill my 2 car garage. I have noticed it takes a considerable...

    MES wiring upgrade mod

    I think both would work. The MGT has a Glass reinforced mica tapes as a insulator. There for this helps with the higher heat. I also think it helps with water resistance. Most ovens or heaters don't get up to those temps there for TGGT wire will suffice. I don't think the heating element...

    MES wiring upgrade mod

    I agree with you 100%. This was done to handle the extra wattage and heat produced from the new element.

    all MES model numbers

    Yes my bad the chip tray and chip loader are different. Thanks for the caching that. The picture this post #1 shows both chip trays and you can get one from masterbuilt.

    all MES model numbers

    The only difference between the small and the large chip tray is that the small one has a spot welded in plug covering half of it.

    MES 40 - Seasoning Help Needed... To Oil or Not to Oil?

    1. No do not wipe out the oil. You just heated the oil to a temperature that  allowed it to seep into every imperfection in the metal surface of the smoker. This will create the barrier that will repel water and keep your smoker from rusting. 2. No do not close the vent keep it fully open if you...

    new MES somker

    You are correct about the missing insulation but it is double walled to help hold temp better. You should not have the same wiring issue other MES owner have. Your unit has completely different type of heating element controller. Your unit has a Analog controller that is fully self contained...

    Cajun Injector - a 30" MES with extra features (Pics) - every MES owner should see this

    Well that makes more than one person on the SMF that has gotten a CI and taken it back for a MES. I think you made the right decision. The CI is a basic copy of the MES. You know what they say about copy's. There never as good as the original.

    newbie here from alabama with few question about the masterbuilt 40" smoker

    Yes and no Do not soak your chips before you use them this helps. Dry chips only! If you do still have lack of smoke issues you can call Masterbuilt and get a retro fit kit that addresses this issue.
