Pk 100 smoke quality

[crash50458]

I purchased the PK 100 smoker probably 3 years ago for doing Summer sausage and a few other things. I’ve always had trouble getting quality smoke out of it using sawdust, always seems to be a grey color. I mix 6 cups of sawdust with 2 cups of water per instructions from pro smoker with the dampers 2/3 closed. I set the smoker to 140 degrees on the high wattage setting, also recommended to me by Pro smoker. Anybody with this smoker have any suggestions? I’ve thought about trying wood chips in the bowl instead of sawdust to see if this changes anything.

Welcome to the forum from ND.
Not familiar with that smoker at all but that sounds like saturating the saw dust way to much . Dampers on my smokers I run just about wide open, don't want that stale smoke hanging around in cook chamber.
I put zero water on my dust when used in my Amaz'n tray.

ARE YOU TALKING THE PK-100 MADE BY PS SEASONINGS. I HAVE THE CABELAS PRO MODEL100 MADE FOR THEM BY PS SEASONINGS, COMMERCIAL GRADE. I HAVE A CHOICE OF 625 WATTS OR 1250, TEMP RANGE 60º -250º. IS THAT WHAT YOU HAVE?
