well, as I said it's been a loooooong time since I used it but I'd
probably dump 'em out of the chimney when they are around 75-80% "white"
ash on the outside. If I needed to add more during the cook, I'd start
'em separately until grey/white and then add them to the unit. I
wouldn't put them in "cold". Just my two cents (which may only be worth
..1 ;-) )
