Thanks Phil. Had a look on that site. Initially the £26 price looks good but when you get to the checkout it adds vat. It also adds vat on to the wood dust, which says price included vat and delivery already???.

I didn't notice that!

...and when you get it you'll see how small it is and wonder whethter you've been ripped off...

...but if you've ever cold smoked before and sat outside in the wind and rain etc with the misses moaning like billy-O, you'll realise that it's worth every penny. :D

The Cold Smoker is £26.00 excluding Vat, but includes delivery. Total cost £29.90
The wood dust is £5.00 including Vat and delivery (£4.35 exluding Vat, but including delivery).
So if you were to order a Cold Smoke Generator + a pack of dust the total would be £34.90.
You may find it advertised cheaper on other sites, but remember that some companies charge shipping at checkout.

The above pricing only relates to sales in the UK

I'm obviously being dense because when I go to your site and click buy now I get a link to international dealers and from there get sent to bbq.co.uk, is that correct :?

Edit, I worked it out, you go to products and from there get to your shop, I really must get a new brain.

Hi Phil,

Not too fussed on the size as long as it does what it says on the tin.
I've been cold smoking for a while now using my bradley. Was looking for something that I could use to give a bit more variation on flavour and also more economical to run. This item seems to tick both boxes but need to purchase one to see if it ticks the final flavour box.

Ps. That website has now been edited and now states that wood dust doesnt include vat.

I have now amended the website to try and make it easier to understand and would like to thank Carpediem for bringing this problem to my attention.

hello everybody,

i've run the smoker now for aprox 5 times, it seems to produce a little less smoke then i like. The flavour is perfect, the collour isn't.

ian, do you know something i could do about it?

p.s. it's smoking away right now with a side of salmon in it...

:D Glad it worked out for you!

IMO I'm not too worried about colour, as long as I get the taste just right.

I'm a 'little smoke for a long time' man and would cold smoke salmon for eating 'raw' for a minimum of 20 hours, I'm surprised you're getting the required weight loss in 10?
