    Help with HM and Keg? Dale/Andy

    Ralph, Thought your rig was one of the ceramic copies of the egg. Does it have the hinged or removable bottom ash pan? It must really be constructed different from the keg, the keg hold heat so well a lot of guys don't like it cause it does take hours to recover from an overshoot on temp. As far...

    I used to use a stone but now only use it for pizza. Imo you don't need the added mass of the stone to hold or stabilize heat in the keg

    Help with HM and Keg? Dale/Andy

    Tuning the pid setting wont do much if anything. I did a lot of smokes to tune it this close. Your fauxmado is ceramic and radiates a ton of heat at 700 to 800 degrees inside I can put my hand on the outside and it is barely warm to touch. Smaller fire is not how much charcoal or lump you add...

    try a different lump I think your lump is screwed up. I would love a twenty minute to drop temp mine usually takes an hour or more to drop 25 degrees, but never had it cause the fire to go out.

    Same here Ralph's Rotodamper with the stock fan same connection. I used 1"conduit connector mounted to a small piece of steel plate inserted into the bottom vent track, then sealed with tape using hard drive magnets on vent plates to help seal them to the keg.

    B =O P =14 I = 0.004 D =5 FAN SET VOLTAGE MAX 22%, START UP 22%, ON AT MAX ONLY. If you put the start-up fan speed higher every time you adjust the temp it will run at that higher speed until it reaches it for the first time this will also cause it to overshoot. Part in sorting is with...

    Help with HM and Keg? Dale/Andy

    The keg can be a real challenge as it holds heat so well it will not drop the temp quickly and my take hours to drop back to 225 after a 15-50 degree overshoot. It is insulated so well, 3 pounds or so load of lump has lasted me over 26 hours at 225 without adding lump in fact it still had enough...

    TC AMP board for 3 probes

    Anyone have time to try and make a x3 board tried playing with eagle but my old laptop can hardly run it without freezing up. I don't use conventional HeaterMeter case so mounting is no problem, I would use panel mount TC jacks.
