Smoking spices

[Doc Drone]

wondering what temp and for how long to smoke spices like Paprika and Cumin? in a MES

Hmm, interesting. How would you do this ? In a foil boat ? Would you have to spread it out to get the smoke to hit all the product ?

I've only ever cold smoked them... Hard to do in a mes unless you have a tube for pellets or an amnps for pellets or dust. Any container will work... I've used coffee filters before

I have done sea salt on a metal pizza pan with hickory wood. Kept temp as low as possible for a couple hours and shook the pan a couple times to turn the salt crystals over. Turned out good, use it for dishes when a lite smoke flavor is all I want. Never tried other spices.
