Hey everyone,
This is my second smoke on my Bull and I had it cruising at 225 for about an hour and a half and then i dropped it to 210. Shortly after that I believe I had a flame out. The temp kept dropping to about 150 and then it shot up to over 300. I looked up the minimum feed rate online and everyone mentions the default as being 6.5(even the app says it). I checked my feed rate and it was set to 30 (3.0) from the factory. I changed it to the 6.5 and it wouldn't keep low temp. It kept creeping to the 270s+. Also, when it was 6.5 and I was obviously way above my set 210 temp, the fan would keep cycling off and on...never heard that before. Anyway, I set it back to 3.0 and it's still kind of all over the place. My first cook was rock solid stable - nothing like this one. Before this cook I cleaned the fire pot out. I'm using Kingsford pellets.
I'm in California and it's about 80 degrees and the grill is in the sun. There seems to be a lot of misinformation on min feed rate out there. Thanks for the help.
