Should I buy a Smokette for cold smoking or is there better?

Former Member

I'm doing research to pick my first smoker. I live up north (sort of) where I'll be doing a lot of smoking salmon and I want a smoker that will do a good job w/ cold smoke. It is important that my smoker be easy to use w/o a lot of babysitting as well.

I am somewhat confused about the Cookshack Smokette. Is it, or is it not, a good cold smoker? I read the thread about the use of the cold smoke kit, but I wonder if the use of ice water will raise the humidity too much for some applications (?). The stated temperature range of the smokette is from 100-250F, but I don't see how you can get wood to smoke at 100F.

I'd appreciate your comments on this matter.
