    Pitmaster IQ issue at low temp

    Hi all, I have been using a Pitmaster IQ 120 with my Assassin 24 as it came with it. But it seems when I am running on low temp (150 degrees, which is the minimum) it is not getting enough oxygen and the smoke gives a bad taste to the meat(like a stingy charcoal taste). I am running this low...
