Hi everyone,
I posted this in the new ownwers section but was advised to also ask here. I was wondering how most people set their top vent. With my old offset, I kept the chimney vent open all the way. That's what's usually recommended for an offset smoker unless the temp gets to high, in which case you would close it to choke the fire off. I'm using a BBQ Guru DigiQ II with my new 22" WSM. I have read where some individuals leave it completely open, or down to as low as 25% open. Just trying to find the optimal setting to use with my DigiQ II.
