You may be getting thin blue smoke and not know it. If you are smoking after dark shine a flashlight on the top vent and I'll be you'll see faint line of smoke. What you want for good flavoring is a thin blue smoke, not billowing white smoke.
dennis0317: My first inclination when I got my SM0025, is that it should smoke like a "coal-fired train" as long as I am cooking. I actually recorded, in my logs, periods when I saw smoke. I just don't worry about it anymore, because the food always turns out with enough smoky favor for me. In fact, if anything over time I have cut back on the amount of wood that I use. After the smoking appears to have stopped, fan your hand over the top vent hole and smell..the smoke is there.
