If the chunks are burning instead of smokdering you may need to gently bend your heating element down just a hair
don't soak the wood chunks you could end up with some nasty tasting creosote on your Q
When I first got the AQ I didn't feel as I was getting enough smoke. I bent my element up. As I stated in another post on occasion I am getting chunks burning (full fire). I have since bent element down and place chunks in box were they will not be over element. In case anyone is wondering how I knew I was getting flames-- I open my door when I see nasty yellow smoke to evacuate it and this is when I saw fire.
