Greetings All,
I like the idea of Mr T's cast iron oven "mailbox" for an external smoke generator.
I understand the key point is is its large thermal mass acting as a heat sink to condense and clean the smoke before being piped to the product chamber.
I've been experimenting with the AMAZN pellet tray/mailbox combination and see the downsides due to its lack of thermal mass. I prefer not to have to use excessively long ducting in order to clean the smoke effectively.
I've been contemplating construction of a relatively simple box that could be nearly as effective as the cast iron stove, and I'm asking for ideas as to what readily available materials I might consider using.
A few things I've thought of so far...
>Granite, quarry tile or other stone tiles
>Brick
>Concrete
I would welcome any and all thoughts/ideas on the subject.
Thanks for reading -
John
