    finished new chamber

    Just a small ultrasonic humidifier. Depending on where it's located and/or the time of year you may need up to both heater, humidifier and dehumidifier. Currently mine is inside so with 70 degree ambient temps the chamber only has to cool. If it were outside I'd have the need to heat. You just...

    Is this mold or dried up water? Help!

    it looks like mycelium, as in mushroom. no harm no foul. i imagine if you left it you would see it pin and fruit shortly.

    Linguica

    I apologise, I cold smoke for an hour at 60-80 degrees. My next target temp is 140, I hold this temp for half hour. After that I crank up the heat to 225-250. This I just how I do it. You could just as easily hot smoke out the door.

    AC Legg Pork 10 Seasoning

    assuming your spices are 15g per tablespoon, then id say you need 64g for 7lb. but you should probably check the weight of the seasoning.

    finished new chamber

    I have it inside the house so at the moment I only need a humidifier. I will probably put it out on my back porch this spring. When that happens im sure i will need both as its always shaded and next to a creek. Leaving inside was just easier for the immediate future, also less hardware needed.

First I disconnected the thermostat and light in the fridge compartment. Then using a Dremel cutoff wheel I cut through the plastic...

    Smoked red pepper flakes

    I smoked up about 200 pounds of peppers this year. I find the end result to be much better than anything you can buy off the shelf. I smoke between 60-80F, several burns over three days depending the pepper and desired end result. I primarily make smoked paprika and chipotle. I also make a...
