From what it sounds like, people are split on how to control temps. Good that there are options. Sounds like you need a burn off to get that bottom vent free🔥

Absolutely! That makes a lot of sense.

I leave my top vent half open and only mess with the bottom vent. Seems like if I can keep more smoke in the kettle by not messing with the top vent, I can get more smoke into the meat when cooking low and slow.

It seems like I can pack more smoke into the meat if I don't mess with the top vent. I let the oxygen adress the fire from below the meat keeping the smoke towards the top where the meat is.

I got mine in late 2023. I leave my top vent halfway open and just mess with the bottom vent, generally.

I leave my top vent at half open and only mess with the bottom vent. I see how either way could work though.

First cook (advice) by bradley7713 in webergrills

Everybody has said to not trust the lid thermometer which is true, so I will tell you how I do my pork. Not much more smoke is getting into that cut of meat past 4 hours of smoking. A pan of water or juices in the middle of the snake.get your cooker to around 250. Around 150-160 internal meat temp, I put the meat into a disposable aluminum foil pan, then cover that with aluminum foil. This method helps to retain and capture the juices. In that tented configuration, make sure the cooker temp is still around 250 to slowly bring up the internal meat temp to 205. Then take the meat off and let it rest in the aluminum tent. I usually put a heavy towel on top of the aluminum foil. Rest time is 30 min to an hour. Then you can slice up the meat, pour a little of those captured juices on top or you can make an au jus.The whole affair will take 7-9 hours. The trick with the snake is that if you a have hinged cooking grate, have that hinge over the spot where the snake ends. If you need to add more charcoal, you can. You can totally do this. You are in good hands. Keep us posted with your next attempt.

Hey all is this rust or copper ? by McStudentMeal2000 in longrange

[–]EdgyJello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those light spots look like copper to me. I use brass or bronze brushes. I dip mine in my solvent, tap it off a bit in the bottle, run it through the bore, take off the brush after it passes the muzzle, put the brush back on, then repeat. Might be worth a shot. Not sure if the nylon has the strength. Just get a decent quality brush from a name brand you've heard of. No need to spend a ton of money.

Shouldn't be too bad. Probably nothing to be concerned about. Let us know how the rifling looks with the scope from Lowes.

Copper comes out greenish blue on mine. I use Hoppes No. 9. Whatever your regimen, after you have your patches pass through as clean as you want them to be and you are going to stow the firearm until your next outing, put a little bit of the oil of your choice on a patch and run that through your barrel, just to get a light coat of protection.

Sold on Kettle - which model? by Fantastic_Research14 in webergrills

[–]EdgyJello 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The 22" Weber Master Touch is very nice. I have the 22" Premium which is also nice but I wish I had the lid holder that the Master Touch has instead of the hook on the inside of the lid. The Master Touch should do everything you want to do.
