    YS640 with a problem...HELP????

    The top rack should be a different temp....I think.  The computer temp probe is at the lower rack level...would be hard to have the upper rack be the same temp as the lower..at least that is how it works on my offset.

    Getting more smoke taste in a 640

    I have not used the amazing tube...but I have been starting out the first hour or so of the cook with the pit set at 180 or so the lower the temp is set the more smoke the 640 will make..I cooked my first brisket this weekend and I was impressed with the smoke ring.   I did not expect such a...

    meat probe inlets for ys640

    After doing some research I believe these are metal cable glands...and do not think they should cost 30 bucks.  Going to try and find one at a store. or at least on line.  It may require some more research to get the correct one.

    meat probe inlets for ys640

    So here is a pic of the inlets...and below is answer I received from Yoder. Yes! You can purchase them they us. They are $29.95/ea. and require a 39/64 hole. Since that size is pretty specific (and, perhaps, a bit hard to find for a drill bit), you could try a 5/8" hole which would be 1/64 too...
