tony b Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 I don't know what the limit is, but I've done cold smoking sessions that were 4 hours long and I used only a fraction of the wood chips/pellets. I did try an overnighter once - got up the next morning and it was empty and cold, so I don't know how long it actually burned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisLinkletter Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Depends on the volume and density of the fuel used.. Small chunks will of course burn longer than chips.. The chips have very little actual volume.. Think about the weight of potato chips and french fries to compare.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony b how big is the tube thinking of ordering one another word what size chunks can fit thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 I'm going on memory here, but the main tube is about 3" in diameter and about a foot or so tall. Just being lazy and not wanting to go upstairs to actually measure it! You will need smaller sized chips and/or compressed pellets for it. I use a combo, as I think that it helps keep it lit. I get my chips from Fruita wood (also my regular sized chunks for the smoker pot.) They have lots of variety and it's top quality wood. I bought the pellets locally at a BBQ shop. They are for a pellet smoker, but work just fine in this application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
