You'll be amazed at how little air flow it takes to keep the fire going. when i do wings in Ah-so sause i need a steady temp so the sause does burn before the wings are cooked. so i set the botton vent open to about the width of my pinkie. and the the top holes in the wheel are are 3/4 of the way open. this holds 250ish for ever and a day it seems.

Eperiment with different setting, its real easy to get a hot fire, not so much if you're trying to lower the temps.

Enjoy!!!!
