Another great thread... mods please delete my account and I will move on to where a few misspelled words about a faulty product does not offend the masses. May you all have a great evening. And please, delete my account.
I won't take it the wrong way at all. I just did not have my glasses on at the time.... TP25. Will instant recall of the exact model number help it to work as advertised for my hard earned dollar?
I purchased a 4-probe (wire connected T25 I believe) and I have had problem after problem. Bad probes, bad units, bad batteries, etc. Each time i call, ThermPro sends me a brand new unit in the box. I have 3 full units now and I an about out of options for mixing and matching parts to keep one...
Usually smoke with oak, but bought about half a rick of cherry with the oak last delivery. Doing an all cherry rack of ribs today and I'm frustrated a bit with the wood. It seems ashy as small, wispy flakes of ash are on the meat and floating out of the open door of the firebox. I am also...
The firebox is solid. The top lid does not leak at all. I guess for the cooking chamber, I am more looking to reduce the flaky, suet-looking deposits that seem to collect in that area.
I should have mentioned I have an extension on the stack and the smoker seems to draw plenty of air. I see the flame within the firebox being pulled toward the cooking chamber and it burns a clean fire. Since creosote is a product of the smoke cooling and condensing, I wonder if it is not air...
I have a Brazos and use mainly well seasoned oak (as confirmed with a moisture meter that I keep on hand). I get very clean smoke coming out of the stack and temps hold well, but this is my first smoker and I have no other point of reference.
I have let if ride for almost a couple of years now, but the space never seems to totally seal itself and the flakey creosote collects in a decent size area and def able to flake off onto the food. I do scrape it often, but wondering if I can avoid that by sealing.
So far, I have not been overly worried about the small amount of smoke I see at times coming from an area or two of the cooking chamber door on my smoker. The draft seems to keep it at a minimum. However, I do get a bit of creosote buildup in an area that the smoke escapes and I would like to...
Lets not get too deep in the weeds. I just want to have a ballpark idea what other smokers are doing - at a consistent temperature Franklin puts out air at X mph, a Yoder does X mph, an Old Country does X mph... I can look at the specs of each and surmise why one might have a higher or lower mph...
Chasdev, I am not seeing to increase or decrease velocity. I simply wish to measure the velocity of the air exiting the stack (because velocity is the easiest measurement to obtain) to see how various pits perform at a certain temperature.
