The aluminum body acts as a heat sink, cooling and directing the smoke. Wood does not require pre-soaking before smoking and can also be used with tea or spices. The removable smoke chamber is equipped with an integrated filter. A flexible rubber hose (30 cm long) allows for easy smoke infusion into resealable bags and containers. The device is compact and light enough to be operated with one hand. It is powered by 2 AA batteries, which are not included. Wood or herbs for smoking are not included.
