Reply to "Very little smoke at low temp (~200F)"

I've actually seen more comments about this recently than I can ever remember.

As the model has been changed, I will now recommend, besides trying the things we mention, to call CS. If it's really an issue, they can help.

Could be how the wood is (very new, green and hard to smoke)
Could be heat/airflow

Keep in mind wood needs heat to combust. The larger the chunk, the more it tends to smolder.

It could be the wood needs to be aged more.

I'd advise smaller chunks, not chips/pellets or sawdust unless you're cold smoking. If you go with too small of wood, it will just ignite at the higher temps with little, very little smoke.

Go with smaller chunks.
