I have a WSM 18.5, and my first smoke with my Digi Q I started with 20 coals in the chimney starter. That was a mistake as my fire was way too hot and I couldn't bring the temp down below 260.
I have begun my second smoke with the Digi-Q, this time I started the fire with a butane torch lighting just a few coals. This time my fire started out low, my set temperature is 225, and it reached a high of 236 before falling back down. This is definitely how I plan to start the fire in the future, but I still need my Digi-Q to "learn" how to ramp this fire up so that it doesn't push it above the set point for an extended period of time.
If any one has any other suggestions on how to keep my temperatures from running away on me, I would appreciate your comments.
