thanks for everyone’s help!
what does everyone store their pellets in? Does it have to be an air tight container?
Nice work man!
I don't do anything special to store my pellets. I probably have close to 200 pounds of pellets so they are all in their 20 and 40 pound bags with a hole torn in the top. I roll up the top of the bag to close the whole but it's nothing more than that for me.
TIP: If you now have issues with your pellets staying lit u can microwave them to zap any unseen/unfelt humidity the pellets always pick up. The safest way to do this is to put on a paper plate and nuke in the microwave for 1 min 20 sec. PULL OUT of the microwave and mix around and let them set outside the microwave for 2 minutes and leave the microwave door open (if u check u can see humidity collecting on floor of microwave). Now put back in the microwave and do another 1min 20 sec nuke. After mix around again and dump into your AMNPS.
Nuking solved any issues I had with pellets staying lit. I think everyone with an AMNPS does it as a best practice and is the reason I don't worry about storying my pellets air tight. THey are in the garage with no risk of getting wet from rain so I'm good.
Finally, if u can build some legs for your AMNPS to stand up off the floor of your mailbox mod bucket then that helps airflow under it and keep pellets lit.
You should be good to go from here.... unless you didnt brine your turkey tenderloins and they dry out, but thats not an AMNPS issue :D
