    Can you grab a few bags of another brand? There may be some ash in hard to get to places. Have you researched the leaf blower trick?

    Yeah, with the thermostat currently. I adjusted it this morning to run a little hotter and cycle longer.

    Also, thank you for welcoming me to the forum.

    Thank you everyone for your replies.

    I'm going to burn the stove hot and heavy for a day or two, with minimal cycling. My gut says that may make a big difference.

    There also a chance that in addition to these stove changes needing to be made, I just got a bad bag. Sometimes ---- happens and you have to just move on. :coffee:

    Still at work so not for a little while, Will is probably more accurate. These babies hate it when you sleep.

    Probably won't.
    my stove is never off, no thermostat.

    same hard cake/clinker problem. it's the pellets.

    i've burned about 40 brands in my stove as i keep trying new stuff every year.... These get a very low score from me.

    "But it can't be the pellets it has to be your stove. The testing says they are awesome!"
