Question about temp control

Posts: 23
Which plays a bigger role in temp control if trying to fine tune on a temp, the daisy wheel or bottom vent? I assume the daisy wheel but thought I would check with the group. Thank you for your help.
XL, LG, mini (soon)

Whichever vent is more restrictive is the one that plays a bigger role. For me, on low n slows, I use the top because it's easier to adjust.

I think both are able to impact temp, but DFMT is the best way to make fine adjustments.Finally back in the Badger State!

Or not use the DFMT/Daisy Wheel at all and control from the bottom vent only. You do not need it. Kind of the kiss application for Eggs.Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Just given another Mini to add to the herd.
