    Pellet trouble

    I just checked the weather and it shows 96% relative humidity. I'm assuming that's the issue.

    Pellet trouble

    It's just a horizontal cheapie pit acting as a cold smokehouse of sorts. In the photos it's smoking, but it's probably the fourth time I've had to light it. This time I opened the damper up as far as it'll go, hoping it'll make a difference. I'm frustrated as hell with the AMNPS right now!!!

    Pellet trouble

    Cold smoking some medium cheddar, mixed nuts, sea salt and hard boiled eggs tonight myself. As long as the temp in the smoker stays under 90, I have found its successful. Although, some cooler temps would make it better and easier. I tried the microwaving the pellet truck. It didn't seem to make...

    Pellet trouble

    I really appreciate all the help, fellas. I think I might try the tube and dust if drying the pellets doesn't work. I see you're in Victoria, ibbones. I am too. Been pretty soupy here tonight, & I think that might be a big part of the problem, don't you?

    I should also add that I have the damper cracked open about four inches and the smoke stack is open also.

    Pellet trouble

    Sorry I didn't do that prior to this thread, but it's done now. I'm on the central gulf coast in south Texas. The temps here have been pretty mild. I'd say upper fifties to mid sixties all three times, fairly humid though. I'm just cold smoking nuts and cheeses, so nothing is dripping. I was...

    Thanks a bunch. Been using a cheapo barrel pit with charcoal and amazen pellet tray. Decided to ease things up, so I have a master built electric 40" on the way. I'm skeptical of the electric smoker, but I'm hoping I like it.

    Hi. My name is Jeffro, and I'm a smokaholic. Admitting it is the first step, right? :-) Anyway, great forum and I'm glad to be here! I live in South Texas, not far from the Third Coast, or the Spoetzl Brewery, home of Shiner Beer. I wear bib overalls and my old hound dog is the best buddy I have!

    Pellet trouble

    I recently got the amazenproducts pellet tray. I'm following the directions as read, but the pellets won't stay smoldering. I have the tray in the bottom of a barrel pit, resting on expanded metal, with a light amount of airflow. I've cold smoked with it three times now and all three times...
