Would this pump work for my cold smoker? Or suggestions on another? http://www.petmountain.com/product/aquarium-air-pumps/11442-614553/coralife-luft-pump-aquarium-air-pump.html- 29 replies

@Aussie Ora-Overall, I tend to agree that planks don't do much for flavor. They're a convenient way of loading/unloading the fish, provide a bit of a heat deflector, and help contain the messy glaze a bit, rather than have it gunk up grates and fall into the fire. Otherwise, planks are definitely optional in my book.
-
@churchi-I use a maple butter glaze at the end which tends to crust up the plank, so one use and toss for me.
-
Looks good, but why do your grates still shine!? My grates are pretty much black after 3 cooks!
-
Correction. Wife tells me I cooked Coho!

Saving topics or posts
Pequod replied to xraydoc's topic in Forum Suggestions, Issues and Enhancements
I save things to OneNote, which is slightly less clunky than email. However, I usually want to save only a single post and exporting to OneNote sends the entire thread. Would love to isolate single posts, but haven't figured out how to do so. -
Recovering fluid dynamicist here, although it's been a very long time since I worked as one. But when I did work as one it was related to combustion chambers of things that fly to great altitudes. Here goes: to hold a steady temp means you're at equilibrium. Energy in equals energy out. Energy in is coming from two sources: ambient air via the lower vent and that being released by combustion of fuel. Energy out is the hot air leaving the chamber and heat loss through the walls. Set the two equal to each other for equilibrium. Energy in air leaving the top vent + Energy lost through walls = Energy due to combustion + Energy of ambient air in. Any combination of settings that keeps that in balance will work. ckreef keeps the air leaving low and combustion energy low, thus saving fuel. Other settings work too, but are less efficient. Sorry for geeking out.

I'm newish to Instagram (I know...dark ages). Don't know if I have anything worth sharing (yet), but how does one "provide the media to fill the KK page with"?

Thank you, @MacKenzie!
-
Looks great! @MacKenzie- can you point me to the bread recipe? Didn't see it in the bread section.
-
Glad you enjoyed! Simple, but seriously delicious.

Yes to all three, but the non-motor side shaft isn't spring loaded. The grill socket it fits into is where the spring is. You will also need the adjustable motor bracket that fits onto the outside of the grill if you don't already have.
-
Wow. So you definitely don't have the adjustable bracket that I did get, but you do have the solid drive shaft I didn't get, as well as the adjustable drive shaft. No idea about the single shaft position on your basket, whether that's an updated design or earlier design than mine. It does match the picture on the KK store website, though.
-
Interesting on the basket. My basket definitely has the two shaft positions shown in the video and came with the adjustable bracket. Not sure why the difference between our two setups. You also have a 23", correct?
-
The adjustable bracket is the motor mount you see toward the end of the video that allows you to mount the motor and shaft tilted away from the grill, and then tightened by wing nuts as you insert the shaft into the grill. Per Dennis above, the drive shaft with this bracket can be solid vice the adjustable one at the top of this thread. In my case, I have the adjustable motor bracket, but my adjustable drive shaft doesn't work because the male (hex) and female (square) parts are different diameters. I can pull them apart without screwing. If your rotisserie basket doesn't have two shaft positions, then you probably have a basket without a reducer. I have an 8" basket with 6" reducer, so which position I use (so I'm told...haven't been able to use it yet due to the drive shaft issue) depends on whether I'm using the reducer or not.

Neat idea. My avocado crazy wife and daughters would love this.

Native Chicagoan here. Been making deep dish - and iterating my recipes - for 25+ years. Extremely impressive what you've done in only two cooks. I need to check out realdeepdish.com. May end up chucking my recipes for theirs.

Done. Also sent you email and the WhatsApp video on this yesterday...just to help you correlate the two emails.
