Pyro Solver in H19 VS H18.5 - Where'd Dissipation Go?

I made the move to the newest Houdini build today, coming from 18.5. The scene I'd been working on involved using the Pyro Solver in SOPs so I'm trying to set things up again with the updated Pyro Solver node.

The only issue I'm running into is the lack of dissipation settings in the Pyro Solver. In 18.5 I had dissipation completely turned off to keep smoke lingering (top setting under Solving - Shape). With 19 I can't find this setting, and by default it is set much higher than I want it to be.

I've tried adding a Gas Dissipate micro solver but this seems to run over the existing settings, only letting me add MORE dissipation.
