VENTURA COLD SMOKE GENERATOR

Retro fit cold smoke generator unit that will suit most table top, floorstanding smokers, bbq's and smokehouses.
Although this unit is small and compact it produces enough smoke for a 16 cubic meter space ( a small room)and will run for 2 hours + before it runs out of wood chips.The hopper can be topped up in the run for up to 10 hours should a longer smoke time be required.
Once the woodchips or wood pellets have ignited the air pump gently blows air into the combustion area and somke out of the short smoke pipe into the smoker providing good circulation.
This unit is quick and simple to install, easy to light, user freindly, safe to use and dishwasher safe.
It is ideal as a gift and could last a lifetime due to its durabe stainless steel construction.
A highly economical device with a woodchip hopper capacity of only about 500cc.
The air pump opperates off 230v and is rated at 5watts - less than a light bulb .

This auction is for one smoke generator, one air pump and a short piece of plastic tubing.

The air pump type may vary from the one shown. Drum shown is excluded.

HALLO

how much time burning a portion



[aleceshowe]

@DjGery1969 This is an early model Ventura 500. It's burn time on 1 hopper full is about 3 hours depending on the sort of woodchips used.This unit works well however the late Ventura 500E is a far more superior design and has a lot more advantages.

I have just used mine for the first time, it is the easiest way to get smoke. And now i can start using all those cold smoked receipes. well done Alec

Kudos! Great idea!

I have one of these (older) models and they suffer terribly from feed problems and stop smoking after about 20 minutes and has to be reignited constantly. There is also no way to get inside to clean the holes once they are clogged with resin / combustion residue. I hope the new model (500E) is of better design.
