Smoke generator LOKI II. 3 l with adjustable air pump

Product detailed description

LOKI II. 3 l Smoke Generator is a practical aid for home smoking of meat, fish, cheeses and other foods. It uses an air pump with stepless power regulation, allowing you to adjust the amount of smoke to your smoking needs. It is suitable for both cold smoking and hot smoking in combination with a separate heat source.

Our own brand generator Fire in the Garden offers a 3-litre hopper, external tar collection and a design engineered for easier cleaning and maintenance.

MAIN ADVANTAGES OF THE LOKI II. SMOKE GENERATOR

• Stepless smoke quantity regulation – air pump with power settings from 10 to 100%.

• External tar collection – condensate is diverted outside the smoking chamber into a drip jar.

• 3-litre hopper – a larger supply of wood chips reduces the need for frequent refuelling.

• Easier cleaning and maintenance – a cross-piece with a plug and a separate opening for emptying ash.

• Practical attachment to the smoker – the generator can be removed without the need to disassemble it.

STEPLESS SMOKE QUANTITY REGULATION

The generator includes an air pump with power regulation from 10 to 100%, which ensures the supply of air necessary for smoke production. Its performance is 2 × 3.5 l/min.

Using the regulator, you can adjust the intensity of smoke production according to the type of food being smoked, the wood chips used and the conditions in the smoker.

EXTERNAL TAR COLLECTION OUTSIDE THE SMOKING CHAMBER

One of the main advantages of the LOKI II. generator is the separate collection of tar and condensate. These are diverted outside the smoking chamber into a drip jar, which is included in the package.

This solution helps limit the penetration of collected condensate into the smoker and simultaneously makes its removal easier during maintenance.

3-LITRE HOPPER FOR LONGER SMOKING

The 3-litre hopper holds a larger supply of fuel and reduces the need for frequent topping up. The burning time depends on the quantity and properties of the wood chips as well as the set air supply.

For smoke production, use only dry wood chips for smoking. The recommended fraction is 3–8 mm or larger. You can choose the type of wood based on the desired taste and aroma of the smoked foods.

EASIER CLEANING AND PRACTICAL DESIGN

The LOKI II generator is designed to make operation and maintenance as simple as possible.

• Crossbar with plug – provides easier access to tar deposits during cleaning.

• Practical attachment to the smoker – the generator can be removed without the need to disassemble it.

• Separate ash disposal opening – allows ash to be removed without dismantling the generator, even during smoking, provided safe procedures are followed.

The generator's construction is made of black painted steel.

HOW THE LOKI II SMOKE GENERATOR WORKS?

The generator produces smoke through the gradual smouldering of dry wood chips. The air pump supplies air via tubes and a Y-connector, helping to transport the produced smoke into the smoking chamber.

Instructions for use:

1. Connect the air pump to the generator using the included tubes and Y-connector.

2. Attach the drip jar for tar collection.

3. Fill the hopper with dry wood chips.

4. Turn on the air pump and set the desired power level.

5. Light the chips at the bottom of the generator using a lighter.

6. Adjust the smoke intensity using the pump regulator.

For cold smoking, no separate heat source is required. If you wish to smoke with hot smoke, it is necessary to provide heating for the smoking chamber, for example, with a suitable heating element and thermostat.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE GENERATOR

Regular maintenance helps maintain correct smoke production and ensure that all parts of the generator remain clear.

After every use, remove ash residue and clean the flue and nozzle. Also regularly remove tar deposits from the entire system and empty the drip jar.

Before thorough cleaning, allow the device to cool down and disconnect the air pump from the mains electricity.

Important: Use the generator only in an outdoor or appropriately ventilated area. Protect the air pump from water and moisture, and do not touch hot parts of the device during operation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What kind of chips should be used in the LOKI II. generator?

Use dry wood chips with a recommended fraction of 3–8 mm or larger. Damp chips can cause problems with smoke production.

Can the generator be used for both cold and hot smoking?

Yes. For cold smoking, the generator produces smoke without a separate heat source. For hot smoking, it is necessary to add a heat source, such as a heating element with a thermostat.

How do I regulate the amount of smoke?

The intensity of smoke production is adjusted using the air pump with continuous power regulation from 10 to 100%.

What should I do if the generator produces too little smoke?

Check if the chips are sufficiently dry, if any parts are blocked, and if the connections are airtight. You can increase the power of the air pump if necessary.

How often does the generator need to be cleaned?

We recommend removing ash and cleaning the flue and nozzle after every use. The entire system needs to be regularly cleared of tar deposits.
