| Fill the Smoker |
  | Continue to add handfuls of final fuel to the smoker, pausing between handfuls to work the bellows until thick smoke comes out the lid. Do not add more fuel until the previous handful has begun generating thick smoke. Stop adding fuel when the smoker contains from one-half the three-quarters fuel. Too much fuel in the smoker only means that burning fuel will likely fall out the nozzle when you tip the smoker into or over the hive to apply smoke to the colony. Never overfill a smoker. |
