Hello from central Texas,
I am 84 years young and just purchased my third Bradley Raven.  First one was damaged, Bradley replaced it new one was slightly damaged on top.  Guess I will keep it instead of the hassle of returning it.  Everything works as advertised except for the Bluetooth setting. Have not been able to get it to work, waiting to hear from Bradley

Thank you so much Edward176!

Of course I will share my smoking stories here! :-) I was about to share som pictures on the BS1019EC I am reparing at the moment, but I will do that later as soon as the spare parts arrive.

There are a few adds or changes on the wish list I got from an executive chef concerning the BS1019 software, but I do not know how responsive Bradley is for such requests ... we will see.

I am quite active on other forums as well and I chat regularly with a good friend – which also is a forum member - in Canada on Skype at least 2 times a week; it is mostly about electrical and electronics stuff but in a totally different area than smokers and the subjects are usually related to snow which was BTW added yesterday with a bit less than 4 inches at my location.

Quote from: TedEbear on January 11, 2023, 03:36:35 AMI have a Thermoworks Smoke and I've checked it with a pot of boiling water and a glass of ice water.  It is very accurate, based on those tests.

Testing Thermometers For Accuracy: Ice Bath Test & Boiling Water Test/Cookie Clicker
I tried it and it is accurate, I think we can apply this method

General Discussions / Re: Smoked eggs: raw or boiled...
Last post by retrobowl - November 18, 2024, 12:49:26 AM
For a balance of flavor and texture, I recommend boiling the eggs first, peeling them, and then smoking. This ensures the eggs are cooked to your liking and absorb a deeper, more uniform smoky flavor.
Boil the eggs to medium or hard-boiled (depending on preference).
Cool and peel them.
Place the peeled eggs on the smoker at 225°F for 30-45 minutes.
Check for your desired level of smokiness and adjust as needed.

Thank you so much Manxman!

Hopefully I will be able to share some of my knowledge to the forum members.

Thank you for the welcome and for the reply yaniebogisish!

The Hirose connectors are not difficult to find and as you wrote Digikey as well as Mouser most probably have them, but I rather order the original cable with connectors for the customer. I will drop the manufacturer an email and order both the connectors and the temperature sensor for the bisquette heater.

Thank you manxman!

I will drop them an email and ask for the values. I took the sensor out and when I had it on the bench I measured again and then it had turned to open circuit. I have som pictures that may help someone when they want to replace something in the bisquette heater, but I do not know how to upload them; I tried but failed. I also had a look on the controller board just in case I have to dig into that too in the future.
