Evening everyone. I have what's probably a super obvious and easy question, but I can't find a good answer online. 

I have an LP stack moker, it has a chimney up top and two flumes down by the burner.  How do you manage fine temperature on this?  Is it the same as charcoal / wood where more air = more fire = more heat?  The burner control on this sucks so I can't get close temperatures.

Thank you!
 
Sounds to me like you need a needle valve on the propane line. You can use this to help fine tune your temperatures. A quick and easy addition that you'll really like.

I'll order one on my next paycheck!

Just to re-iterate; the chimney up top simply controls the amount of smoke the smoker retains, not temperature control. And that temperature control will be controlled the pressure knobs only?
