dont understand what you mean by that red juicy color ??? what kind of salmon are you smoking???

sounds like too much salt in the brine, if you like it sweeter then make your sugar to salt ratio to 4-1. also half way through the smoking process, which should take no more than 12-14hrs, mix 1/4 cup sugar(brown) demorara of course with just enough water to make a watery syrup baste on fish, gives it a nice glossy appearance and that sweet taste .

Also in this cold weather you need to insolate the smoker . Some people use the box it comes with I use a thick blanket ,this will speed things up.

M ake sure your element is heating up properly they do have to be replaced now and then.

I just learned that the hard way. My element overheated and ruined a whole batch. Oops.
