Sausage maker 20lb smoker

[Ftwkma]

I just bought a 20lb (TSM) sausage maker smoker. I can not get it to work properly. The Novus N321 temp controller is a PITA. I’m unsure if it’s set at F or C. I’m a newbie I’ve set the temp at 145 for jerky. The Bluetooth temp gauge goes above 230 degrees. Something isn’t right. I’ve read the manual on the N321 but i can’t get this to work. Here i wanted a USA made unit and wonder if i should send it back. I can pay half price for a China one without the headaches.

I bypassed the poj controller and wired my element to a hd cord and to a PID from auber. works like a charm.

Those units have a good reputation. I would give them a call and see if they can walk you through the set up or trouble shoot the unit by phone.
