    If someone's running a cat stove and it starts to overfine, bypassing the catalyst would be the first thing I'd do and let things mellow out that way for a bit.

    Edit: Came back to add- staying calm is also important. Freaking out and being rash rarely if ever is the right move.

    And an extinguisher of some kind. Better a little mess than the alternative. Live to fight another day.

    700f I'll go to sleep with
    800f I'm slightly worried.
    When your stovetop is glowing and starts to droop towards the ground very very scary.
