Hi all. Just finished up my mailbox mod for my MES and AMNPS and man, it is working extremely well.

I've taken a couple stabs at making sausage and they have came out pretty good, but I had a difficult time producing much smoke. I start around 100 degrees and gradually work my way up to 170, but even at 170, there wasn't much smoke.
My question is that if I fill the AMNPS full and apply smoke for the 10 hours that it has taken me in the past to get the sausage up to 155 degrees, I would think it would come out way over smoked. If I were to only fill the AMNPS maybe a third full to get a few hours of smoke, when would it be best to apply smoke? Maybe right at the beginning? Maybe closer to the end? Would appreciate any thoughts.
