Turned on the HM for the first time today in about two weeks and all of my stashed logs are gone as well.

Pork butt on the WSM 22.5", air-burner prototype rev 4, threw in a Maverick ET-72 versus Thermoworks TX-1001X-OP with Bryan's latest coefficients. Had to notch out a opening for the Thermoworks. Second cook with nomex gaskets on. Lump, pecan, apple, cherry. http://heatermeter.dyndns.org:56789

Yeah, cross referencing the two is kind of lame which is why I wanted to try and do it all in one thread. But, hey, whatever works. Bryan, you look like you are up to something interesting at your house. Testing some coefficients?

Back at it again on a very unstable day: http://heatermeter.dyndns.org:56789 In the most of un-scientific of fashions, today was the first attempt in the WSM with the nomex gaskets and let me tell you, it changed *everything*. A lot more air is needed to pump through as the thing is very tight...

I am of the mind that we should join forces between the live heatermeter cooks and the post-cook graphs. It is really cool to watch the live cooks, but a good frame of reference to come back and look and see how things turned out once the machine has been turned off.

Fascinating! What were the adhesives? Due to some health issues in the family, I am really loathe to start mixing up heat and unknown substances. Thank you!

Oh, not at all Dan! In fact, it was very encouraging. If you do find the photos of your setup, I would be very interested in seeing them.

I too like to seal the puppy up as much as possible. I am using just the blower going through a copper manifold "air burner" that I have been working on. I bought one of Dave's damper valves a while back but have not figured out a good way to mount it yet. I may try and find a way to mount...

I really was just curious. It seems as though: 1. It IS possible with the current configuration (with some caveats) 2. I still need to get to know this smoker a bit. I have spent the past decade smoking with my Weber kettle. I can keep that sucker pegged at 225 for 14 hours at a time using...

Here is a tricky question: Given my experience with my WSM 22.5", I seriously doubt that only one damper / vent being manipulated would be able to sustain enough oxygen for a consistent 225. I reason that is why Weber puts three vent holes around the charcoal bowl. Would it be possible in the...

Good to know. It baffles me as to how I got into manual mode since my button has been absent since the debacle a couple of weeks ago. New part is on order along with a couple more HM boards from OSH that haven't shown up. They seem to be having issues. Anyways, onwards and upwards.

Short ribs are on with version 2 of my prototype air burner. Very strange today when I plugged the box in, it said that pit temp was 0 degrees despite not having a probe plugged in. When I did get a probe in, the fan didn't go on, the PID's didn't move, nothing. Rebooted....nothing. Rebooted...

215 setpoint? You are a much more patient person than I. People give me flak about 225. Your drum changes temps fast!

The 22" WSM dial thermometer is crap. Don't ever trust it. First of all it is measuring dome temps which are different than the cooking grate temps. I have found my dome temps to be 20 - 30 degrees off of the top cooking grate. I have found the top and bottom cooking grates to be 10 - 15 degrees...

Darren, Have been so busy I haven't had a chance to drop you a line. As promised, I went through two cooks this weekend and put the app through its paces. The alarm notification seems to be a bit weird. If you have the app active when the alarm hits, it notifies you and you can silence or...

Man, 5 oclock hit and my incoming connections lit up. I hope everyone is enjoying the show!

To be more specific: Oct 14 13:17:11 HEATERMETER user.warn lucid[569]: Checksum failed: $HMSU,225,225.0,$ Oct 14 14:36:47 HEATERMETER user.warn lucid[569]: Checksum failed: $HMSU,225,224.7,$

Updated to LMV10 today and have noticed checksum errors in the config page's Heatermeter information box. Anything to be overly concerned about?

It is the PID output. Press the "P" button when on the graph screen and it will pop up.

The brisket is on! First cook with my prototype "airburner." Will post some details later, but you can watch it here: phillip-is-a-geek.dyndns.org:56789/luci
