This was a real helpfull idea. I have several cooks with this installed on just the bottom joint and it is holding up well and I am able to extinguish the coals. FYI, I was able to get a good price for this nomex tape on eBay. Search nomex gasket.

I also did my first DigiQ DX cook this weekend. I saw the same thing but was not too concerned because I had the Maverick probe in a different location than the DX pit probe. I am going to connect the DX probe to the Maverick next cook to see if this helps. BTW, I cooked some baked potatoes with...

Rob, Just a note from my install. Take a look at the diffuser when you install it and make sure the diffuser seat and the outside mount are sealing properly. The diffuser can have a little leakage on the inside but the outside mount should seal tight to the vent all the way around it. If you...

Robert, I use mine for fruit juice most. Use the small plate and the basket for pressing fruit. Makes the best apple juice you will ever have. You will need to grind or chop the fruit into small pieces first. You can get a new stainless basket from Chop-Rite - the new owners of Enterprise...
