Do you folks plug your port when you use a Guru or another type of temp controller? I just stuff a little newspaper in it and let it roll.

Never mind.. thought we were talking about beer! :becky:

Not sure about that newspaper.. don't put it near the vents on your cooker.. could get too hot and ignite.

I just close the ball valve and put the kill plug in...... If you don't have a ball valve, then just put the kill plug that came with the Guru...

Good idea! Just changed out to tin foil! Thanks..

I asked the same question a week or so ago - I have the adapter with no ball valve and I bought the cooker used and don't have a guru kill plug. Recommended to me were rubber stoppers or corks. I'm currenlty using a champagne cork - regular wine cork wasn't big enough. I've had a couple cooks with the cork in there - I should pull it out and see if there's any charring.

I meant while I am cooking! Sorry, my bad!

We recommend, if you want to plug the void of the port around your wires to use aluminum foil. This should be safer around the heat than paper towels or newspaper.
