can you cold smoke with this smoker?

Yes, if you buy the cold smoke attachment. Amazon sells it and it attaches to the chip loading opening for true cold smoking. You can get a very low temp. smoke with the base unit but it is not a true "Cold smoke"
152033
Yes you can. Set your thermo to about 150 or below it will do fine what are you smoking

Not easily. The heat element is in the unit where the food also is. If you are careful about the temp, smoke could be started then the heat element stopped, I guess.

You need the cold smoker attachment (sold separately for under $60 on amazon). I cold smoke, with the attachment, (salmon and various cheeses, so far) and it does a wonderful job of imparting the smoky flavor.

There's a way to viols smoke without buying a cold smoker it's intense but works.

This countertop smoker is made to be used indoors. With that said, you must have a well ventilated area. This smoker comes with an exhaust hose so that the smoke can be exhausted outside.

Depends on the size of your container and the temp of where you are using it. I'm gonna say that in general the answer to your question will be a definite "no". But if you are using a real small smoker and it's warm outside, it's possible. This is designed to be a cold smoker, though...not for heat.

Well, first off, it would only work for cold smoking in that setup. It will not work in a charcoal / wood environment due to oxygen restraints. For cold smoking, you could place it in the firebox and see how the air flows. If you're getting smoke out of the stack, then it will work. If not, it may be necessary to put it on or below the bottom grate. A decent supply of O2 is key in getting good results from this contraption. Hope this helps.

No, this smoke generator needs to be below the burners, or it can be used as a pre-smoker, or a cold smoker. Then it can be mounted on the side above the burner to smoke the meat first then grill it. I may get a second one to mount on the side just for that purpose...

I think heat is the most important thing for the smoker to work well, but i would check with Cameron for a definite answer. I do know the smoker is wonderful!

This works with any kind of smoker. The heat source is not the smoker, it it filled with your choice of wood pellets and then lit. It will produce all the smoke you need. I personally have side box on my electric "fridge smoker". I smoke everything from cheese to pork ribs to salmon. It works great.

The cover is quite snug with the standard 30" unit. I am not familiar with the cold smoker unit, but I assume that it takes up additional space. We are very pleased with the unit, but the thermostat does run about 25 degrees hot.

According to the person I talked to at Masterbuilt, the 20070213 will not generate smoke below about 185 degrees. It would have been nice if the web site had stated this. You have to buy the 20070112, cold smoker. It is designed to feed smoke into the 20070213, which you leave turned off and just use as a smoke chamber. In my experience it runs about 85 degrees or so but that may depend on outside temperature somewhat. It generates a LOT of smoke. For cold smoking you probably could just feed the smoke from the 200720112 into any suitable chamber. Note that the 20070112 is NOT usable by itself. You have to feed its smoke into some chamber where your food is located.

It would need some modification to add one or use it as a smoker. The charcoal side has gaps in the hood that will prevent you from being able to control the smoke and temp. but if there is a will there is a way. I just saved some time and order a smoker.

No, I believe because it is an electric smoker that would be a fire hazard. However; it does include a drip pan that will keep some moisture in the unit.

I'm sure you can....however I returned mine after it started smoking after 5 minutes of slicing a hard block of cheese...if you buy this one save the box it comes in.

I don't believe this smoker is intended to go that low. I smoke at 220 deg F and above and don't have a problem obtaining that temperature and I'm at the low end of the dial.

I don't see why you couldn't- the probes come out of the base and that transmits to the handheld thermometer.. You will need a shelf or a stand or something near the smoker that you can put that base on - obviously outside the smoker where it's not hot... Since the temps are usually low when smoking I don't think you'll need to worry too much about the internal heat affecting the probe or wire - it will be the placement of the base will be your issue..hope that makes sense?

You can't put any liquids in this smoker, but what I have done is smoke the meat you want to use and smoke any or all vegetables, then prepare in slow cooker or on top of stove. I live in a high rise condo , we are not allowed to have any grills or smokers on our Balcony. this is is a great indoor smoker.

You would need the cold smoking attachment (part 20070112). Alternatively, I've seen a few people mention using an A-maze-n Pellet Smoker inside the masterbuilt smoker to do cold smoking as well.

Yes, just keep the temperature below 250. I've noticed if the smoker gets over 250 you will start to see all of the pellets smoldering at one.
