    WSM 18.5 drip pan on top of water pan

    I'm stationed in K-16 Seoul Airbase. Thankfully I got a place with a balcony that I can BBQ in rain or shine :)

    WSM 18.5 drip pan on top of water pan

    Thanks for the input! I just cooked 3 pork butts and like a hundred pieces of chicken thighs for my Soldiers this morning. I wish I took some pictures! I was putting my Kamado Joe, WSM, and Jumbo Joe to task this morning. I am really enjoying the WSM. Holds temp even more stable than my Kamado...

    WSM 18.5 drip pan on top of water pan

    Awesome! Also, I wonder if the holes at the top of the water pan allow some steam to escape as well? It sounds like it will work to try this set up with water. Will definitely try the foil on the drop pan. Thanks!

    WSM 18.5 drip pan on top of water pan

    Good day all! I have tried searching the forums to this question but can't seem to find a hit. Does anyone have experience with putting a drip pan directly over the water pan with the water inside the pan? I'm stationed in Korea and found a stainless steel pan that perfectly fits over the...

    Jumbo Joe Vent Scratch

    This is a reply to an old post but I had the same issue on a recently purchased Jumbo Joe. Sure enough, I took off the edge on the vent and there were parts of the vent where the metal stood out sharper than others causing the scratch. Took a fine sand paper and it is very smooth now. It doesn't...

    HeaterMeter and Kamado Joe Classic II

    Hi Bryan. Been meaning to thank you earlier for the awesome info. This is exactly what I needed to figure this out. Very practical and informative. I just finished an overnight cook and came out perfect and stayed very tight to the set temperature for most of the cook. I did want to ask you...

    HeaterMeter and Kamado Joe Classic II

    Thank you Bryan. I just tried a low grill. 225 set point. I only opened the top vent by a tooth pick width and it seemed to hold the temperature after messing with the on above fan setting to 25%. Attached is my output. Could you tell if its doing good? Thank you. https://imgur.com/a/llwnADB

    The Adapt-a-Damper - Open Source Project

    Need some adapt a damper love here. I got my heater meter up and running but have no clue if the damper is working as it should. When I set the set temperature to a high temp, the damper will close. However, when I am doing a cook and there is a temperature overshoot; say, a 225 set temp that...

    HeaterMeter and Kamado Joe Classic II

    Thank you for the info. I am using the adapt a damper using a thermocouple from amazon with a aligator clip. What I am understanding is that for low cooks like 225, the top vent opening is going to be smaller opening compared to say a 350 degree cook. It held 350 with top vent open to the 1st...

    HeaterMeter and Kamado Joe Classic II

    I did a cook did other day with set point of 350 and held very tightly with the settings: P:2.5 I: 0.0035 D: 6 Fan on above 25, min 10, max 40, start up 100. Today, I try to do a slow cook with 225 set temp. I climbed to 255 and stayed there consistently. Both the previous cooks and the...

    HeaterMeter and Kamado Joe Classic II

    Could anyone with a Joe classic II post their lid open setting? Finally put mine together and set the temp to 225 but it shot up to 240 and the dampers still remained fully open. Trying to understand if that has some role in the overshoot and damper being fully opened. https://imgur.com/yzV81Fz

    Servo/Fan Wiring to Jack

    I thought that would be my last post :) I finally hooked it up to my KJ CLASSIC 2 with thermocouple. Set it to 225 but soon it overshot to 240. The fans stopped at that point but the damper was still open 100% and temp still climbing. Current settings: P:7 I: .0063 D:9 on above 25%, min 5%...
