I plan to buy SM066, can anybody anwer my concerns about this model?

1. plan to use it for cold smoking with temperature ranging from 45-55 celsus, just wondering what is lowest possible temperature for this model without heat baffle, or should I use heat baffle for this temperature range

2 can the machine stands the cold winter in Canada if I put it in backyark given this model is not for internal use, did anybody use this type indoor? is it ok if I put it in a shed in backyard?

Heat baffle is recommended for cold smoking. The smoker has 850* insulation and cooks well in cold weather with little or no affect on the cooking process. Many put their Cookshack smokers inside sheds, and they work fine. Although some do add a vent in the roof to evacuate smoke.

Welcome to the CS forum. Now ya gotta understand, I wasn't raised on Celsius! After some studying, I see you are talking about 113-131*F. This would be really low temp in regards to getting some smoke started, unless you have a baffle. That would also lead me to wonder how long you are wanting to smoke at this low of temps?

As far as the cold weather, I've smoked brisket in the 0* to -10*F, you just have to make sure the drip hole doesn't freeze shut on the smoker. It doesn't seem to add much cooking time to the smoke either.

Hope this helps a little.
