Cold smoking smoker
From a hot smoking this type of treatment differs in that the smoke by which the product is processed does not exceed + 25˚C.Only in this case will smoked with a delicate aroma, bright taste and dense structure. So, we choose the length of the pipe from the furnace to the smoke chamber, so that the smoke can cool down while it reaches its destination. In the figure, we see which length is optimal.
In order for the product to lose dangerous carcinogens, smoky semi-finished products are located in such a way that the smoke coming out of the furnace can mix with oxygen. It will not smoke, but a light smoke, already devoid of pyrolysis gases and harmful impurities. The construction of a smoking smoker should be considered, because a mistake in the device will lead to a deterioration in the taste and insecurity of the prepared dish.
Step-by-step instructions for the construction of a smokehouse
The combustion chamber is located no closer than 2.5 meters from the smokehouse and under a slope, as in the photo. Having chosen a place for a firebox, it is possible to start construction of a stationary smokehouse of cold smoking by one's own hands. We plan a structure on a hill, natural or artificially created. Or it is necessary to deepen the furnace and the pipe into the ground.
If you want to make a device that pleases with its reliability and durability, then we build a smoking chamber made of brick or building blocks:
1. The soil is selected for 60 cm at the site of the future foundation. The formwork is 25 cm high. The perimeter depends on the selected camera dimensions. It is reinforced and poured with concrete. In the center, before pouring the mixture, set the 10-liter bucket bottom-down. At this point, smoke from the pipe will flow into the room.
2. The walls are made of brick or building blocks. If desired, you can make a homemade smoking smokehouse with a window. A large window is best not to do - direct sunlight is harmful to the smoky product.
3. Next, the rafters of the gable roof are installed. Then, there is mounting of sheets of plywood or OSB slabs, then a soft roof is put.
For fireboxes, fireclay bricks are used. It is possible to adapt any metal oven with doors. The pipe from the furnace to the smoking chamber should be refractory, especially in the hottest place. Logically, before erecting the structure of the smoking chamber, lay a pipe, bring it to the base of the room and to the firebox.
The pipe should be of large diameter, then by the time the smoke is released into the smokehouse, harmful carcinogenic substances will precipitate and the meat will be exposed to a cold haze with a slight aroma. How to make a smoking smokehouse is clearly visible in the photo.
Smokehouse cold smoking in the country is easy to arrange, especially if the land is under a slope and is broken into terraces. It is a sin not to use the natural conditions created for the device of an excellent home smokehouse. In this case, the smoking room is located on the upper terrace, and the furnace is lower with a storey. Do not have to artificially raise the foundation of the smoking chamber and deepen the stove. In the video, we can see more clearly how the process of building a smokehouse smokehouse is going on.
