Lots of discussions on tvwbb.com, but I don't remember temperature control problems being mentioned.

That tells me that, even though you mucked around with the cooker, it maintained around 250 deg. All good to me!

But it was at 225* at one point. And that was what I wanted. Why did it jump up ?

I think 225 is too low for a summit to cook at. When I cook on the summit, I am amazed at how little the intake and exhaust need to be open to cook at 275. I also cook with a water pan in my summit. It seems to act like a heat sink to keep the temperature more stable. Both kamado grills that I have had liked to cook hotter and it was always a struggle to cook lower

You mucked with the vents.

No, you can smoke at whatever temperature you want and have great results. I have cooked at 225, 250, 275 and have gotten the same results. The biggest difference is that the lower you cook, your window of when your meat is done to overdone is larger. Learn to cook at 250 or 275 and save yourself some sleep and anxiety. I have posted a lot of my techniques that are mostly what I learned from Johnny Trigg.

Cookers do that when you use natural fuels, since they don't always burn at a steady rate. If it stayed there for over 45 minutes, I might nudge a lower vent a hair.
If I was paying attention. You have to learn your cooker, sometimes that means running it without food in it, seeing where it runs for a given vent setting.
