Hi Brethren; was wondering once you have got your UDS to your set temp; how often do you need to make adjustments to make it stay at the set temp.
Thanks.
Thanks.
I was testing out a new UDS tonight with just a load of lump (no wood, no food) temps were fluctuating quite a bit, I am guessing it is the Lump; I have never used lump in a UDS before.
I have run my UDS upwards of 16 hours without touching the charcoal using Kingsford Blue. I have done this with and without the Guru temp controller.
How often did you adjust the air inlet? If too frequently, you can start chasing temps. Otherwise, you may have an air leak. Also, how did you light your lump?
Would you mind posting or PM'ing me a photo and details of your Guru set-up? I have the old Competitor model, but I'm guessing the mounting hardware is the same.
I used the WSM Adapter on the drum. I drilled a 1" hole about 1.5" above the bottom of the drum and mounted the WSM adatper in that hole with the vent blowing down. The fan I have is the Pit Viper 10cfm and I had been using the DigiQ II DX controller. I can probably snap a photo of that setup if you want to see it....
Can I use JB weld around the air intakes to seal them up real good just incase of air leaks?

Don't bother. Use it a couple of times and it will gunk up nicely down there.
