A thoughtful design that brings together key advantages you’ll appreciate in practice:

• Universal dragON JET 4 LITE smoke generator—made of bead-blasted stainless steel—for any backyard smoker up to 300 L. An innovative combination of compact size with high performance and low chip consumption—perfect for cold smoking, warm/hot smoking, and finishing with a bake.
• 1.8 L cylinder—holds enough smoking chips for several hours of smoking without needing to top up.
• Innovative smoke generator nozzle—its design with precisely beveled ends and a special angled tube makes it easy to inject smoke evenly into the smoker.
•  Ash-drop function—a novel yet simple solution that keeps your smoking process running smoothly and improves smoke generation without the cylinder clogging. With the special ash chute, you can continuously remove ash produced as the chips smolder.
• Efficient dragON Air electric pump—the adjustable airflow optimizes chip combustion. Through a hose, the pump feeds air into the angled tube integrated with the nozzle.
• Quick assembly/disassembly, easy cleaning—the design allows fast, straightforward connection to your smoker and easy setup while maintaining a proper seal. You can take it apart and clean it without unscrewing the base from the smoker and without using any tools.
• Smoke like a pro and save—the dragON JET 4 LITE is ideal for anyone who values quality and functionality but also wants an attractive price.

The smoke generator is made in Poland.

• This robust, weather-resistant smoke generator can be mounted to steel, wooden, or brick smokers—on either side of the smoker, as needed.
• You can regulate the amount of smoke using the pump—according to the needs and the capacity of your smoking chamber. Adjust the pump’s output with the switch and the knobs on the reducing valve.
• The cylinder closes with a steel lid with a wooden handle—ensuring proper smoke circulation and protecting the chips as they smolder, for example from raindrops. The wooden handle lets you safely open the heated cylinder.
• Holes in the lower part of the fill cylinder make it easy to light the chips and ensure adequate oxygen supply. Note: Keep an eye on the amount of smoke generated to avoid souring your products.
• The innovative nozzle ensures ideal smoke draw. It’s beveled on both ends: at one angle that helps smoke exit into the smoker, and at the other to prevent the nozzle from clogging with chips as they smolder.
• The movable ash drop with handle, mounted between the cylinder and the base, lets you shed ash from spent chips on the fly. This ensures efficient, uninterrupted operation of the generator throughout the entire smoking process.
• You can cut the hose to the lengths needed to connect the pump to the smoke-generator nozzle.

In the Browin range you’ll find chips tailored to specific products, perfect for smoking meats, fish, and cheeses. The smoke generator can use chips of various grades, but we recommend a chip size (caliber) of 8–12 mm for the best smoke distribution inside the smoker.

Attention! Use only dry chips (max moisture content no more than 11%). Chips that are too moist will disrupt—or even prevent—the smoke generator from working properly.

Before using the smoke generator, read the user manual included in the set. Also read the instructions for connecting and using the dragON Air pump, supplied in the pump’s separate packaging.

Cleaning: After each smoking session, clean the generator—especially the interior—so it’s fully ready for next time and ensures proper smoke flow. Do not use sharp tools that could damage the device’s components.

Tip — which smoking method should you choose?

Smoking methods:

• cold smoking
• warm/hot smoking
• smoking with a finishing bake (typical of BBQ)

Cold smoking: Usually carried out at up to 25°C and lasts from several hours to 14 days. Adjust smoke density to your needs. Typically, smoke flow speed should be around 6–15 m/min. This method is used mainly for products intended for long storage or maturation, as the smoke penetrates deeply and preserves them slowly. Foods smoked this way dry evenly. Cold smoking also delivers excellent results for long-term aging.

Warm/hot smoking: This exposes the product to smoke above 25°C. Two upper limits are commonly used: up to about 45°C is called warm smoking, and up to 60°C is hot smoking. For hot smoking, you can also finish the products right in the smoker by raising the chamber temperature to 80-90°C.

Smoking with a finishing bake: For finishing, you can disconnect the smoke generator and use only heat.

Whatever method you choose, remember smoking is a finishing process—the foundation is properly preparing your products and drying them very well before smoking (or pre-drying in the smoker). This step is crucial for quality and helps prevent souring.
