Borniak Stainless Steel Cold Smoke Adapter (ZWS-01): Optimal temperature control
The Borniak Cold Smoke Adapter in polished stainless steel makes it significantly easier to create stable and predictable conditions when cold smoking. The adapter is smoothly mounted between the smoke generator and the smoking cabinet, giving the smoke sufficient time to cool down before it enters the chamber. The manufacturer states that this setup keeps the internal cabinet temperature at a level that typically runs only 1 to 2 degrees above the ambient outdoor temperature, depending on your setup and surroundings.

When utilizing a cold smoke adapter, you separate the heat generated by the burner element in the generator completely from the smoker cabinet. This is crucial when smoking delicate items that are highly sensitive to warmth. Thanks to its high-quality stainless steel construction, the adapter is extremely durable, weather-resistant, and very easy to keep clean between smoking sessions.
Use a sprial pipe or a flexible hose of approximately 2 to 3 meters between the adapter and the smoking cabinet to allow the smoke ample time to cool down properly. We also recommend placing an independent thermometer inside the cabinet when cold smoking, especially on mild days, to ensure you maintain full control over the conditions.
Features
- Tailored for cold smoking: Developed specifically for smoking processes where you want rich smoke aroma with minimal heat increase inside the cabinet.
- Simple ducting: Mounts directly onto the smoke generator and connects further to the smoker cabinet via an external hose or pipe.

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary benefit of using a cold smoke adapter?
The main benefit is that the smoke generator is moved away from the cabinet. The embers inside the generator develop a certain amount of heat, and by separating these units, the smoke has time to cool inside the pipe before reaching the food. This gives you perfect control over the low temperatures required for successful cold smoking.
Does this model fit my specific Borniak cabinet?
Yes, the adapter is universally compatible with Borniak smoker cabinets in both the 70 series and 150 series, including the popular UW-70 and UW-150 models.
Are hoses or connection pieces included in this set?
No, external pipes, hoses, or specific connectors between the adapter itself and the smoking cabinet are not included in the box with this standalone item. This must be purchased separately based on the length and layout you plan to use at your smoking location.
