A place holder for a diary on the MKII project.

The MKI Filing Cabint Cold Smoker has been in my opinion a great success.
For the cost of �15 and some labour, I found great results could be achieved. With some care and attention the basic weaknesses of the system.

1) Temperature control bit hot and cold.
2) Keeping it smoking.

Could work tolerably well.

So what is the real weakness in the system requiring a MKII?

well I think it is size. If hanging fish you will get a fair bit in, and I could add an additional tray or two in. But I think using a separate "smoke box" will be of enormous benefit. Allowing me to smoke large batches at a time.

The base of the cabinet will then be free to be dedicated to the hot smoking side and perhaps if I insulated the cabinet in some way. I may be able to easily generate Pizza/Tandoori temperatures in the cabinet
