    I think a key to clean glass is: high quality pellets, and believe it or not, running the stove harder than just at an idle

    Maybe Giada did...best to wait by the phone for the next 3 weeks. She needs time to get the pre-nup in place before contacting you.

    I sent off an email some years back and they stated 60(soft/40(hard) as the mix. Don't think they changed it much over the years.

    Thanks it was one of those pellets I started with when I was running the stove on low . Now that I'm able to run the stove wide open thought I'd see how they perform and at 5 . 18 worth another shot .

    That's what I like about you, Woma......glass is always half full! I'll make sure to turn the ringer on on my cell phone, most assuredly she should be calling.......

    All the stoves seem to have a spot that carbons up.

    The Whits do and I have drilled, tweaked and thrashed about the fire pots.

    The clue that this is normal is the fact that the manuf's sent a scraper tool with the stove when new.

    Just sayin
