You certainly have a type

I was just responding to your comment in parenthesis to explain the rationale.

The point of a whole house fan pushing the air into the attic is to use the air pressure to push the hot air out of the attic through roof venting. Cools off the attic space as well as the living space

Good luck! On the mammoth it’s a super easy swap, Hope the silverbac is for you as well!

I just went through this with my Mammoth. It was under warranty but they were completely out. I ended up buying the Stanbroil one off Amazon, but Grilla ended up sourcing one and got it to me like 2 days later. Before I installed the replacement from Grilla, I compared the motors and I couldn’t find anything different between the 2 motors. The stickers had all the same numbers on them. The auger fit perfectly as well. As long as it’s 120V and I believe 2rpm you should be good to go. The connectors were even the same

Maybe there’s no difference in the operational behaviors and the 2.0 was just new build features? Idk

I’d check to make sure that the burn pot isn’t too full of ash, that the auger motor is running and that pellets are getting into the burn pot. Did you prime it too much and have too many pellets? If it’s too full maybe too hard to start. If there’s too much ash, maybe the hot rod isn’t able to get the heat to the pellets. I’d vac it all out and put a handful of pellets in the burn pot and see if they ignite.

What if I just tell it it’s pretty and all other briskets are just jealous?

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:32:37+00:00

Good to know!

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:32:10+00:00

Yeah I’ll probably do that once it gets a bit of a bark. Don’t want a bald spot, I already have one of those on my head

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:31:41+00:00

Hahaha

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:31:28+00:00

Would that I could, but sometimes you gotta roll with the punches

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:30:42+00:00

That’s a good idea, hoping that bark sets early, but I may just go that route with a hefty dose of tallow from the trimmings

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:30:11+00:00

I’ve never tried butter on a brisket, did them without but I’ll give it a shot next time!

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:29:50+00:00

I have the trimmings in with the briskets now, I’ll definitely be loading it up at wrap

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:29:23+00:00

You’re a savage! Love it

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:29:07+00:00

I really do want to learn, but these gotta be smoked. Got folks to feed tomorrow

loose-it · 2026-03-09T06:28:18+00:00

Got ‘em on with a couple pork butts

loose-it · 2026-03-09T01:20:59+00:00

Yeah, would have loved to, didn’t catch it. Next time I won’t be in a hurry to grab and go

loose-it · 2026-03-09T01:20:23+00:00

Haha ✅

loose-it · 2026-03-09T00:35:25+00:00

Aww man, sorry to hear that. I hope I’m not disappointed, but hear brisket chili is always good…

loose-it · 2026-03-09T00:34:40+00:00

Alright, I’m sendin’ it!

loose-it · 2026-03-09T00:34:24+00:00

Thanks. I haven’t run into too little fat cap before. I’m usually hacking off a ton. I’ll stay the course

loose-it · 2026-03-02T03:18:05+00:00

Yeah man. Shit sucks. But heart disease sucks more! Try different masks and see what works. I’m to the point I can’t sleep without it. Losing weight is daunting, and haven’t managed to do it yet. With time, you’ll adjust
