I just picked up a 22" WSM, and I'm surprised at how the lower grate basically sits directly on the water pan. Versus my 18" where there is a bit of an air gap.
I don't use water, and with my 18" I used a tray to cover the water pan. I don't think that will work on the 22", as there will be effectively zero space between the tray and the lower grate.
So, what's the solution? I feel like I need some thermal mass between the fire and the lower grate, but I don't want it directly up against the grate.
