Excellent question. I am pretty sure it's removing mineral deposits from the burned wood.
BDF has it right. A botched cleaning would probably involve using high pressure water or air. I use a low pressure kitchen sink sprayer and follow...
Machria's Post #9 is spot on. Spray with 50/50 vinegar/distilled water, let sit, rinse with distilled water. Makes a HUGE difference.

Seems the two reasons people don't want the PH ashpan are concern over the extra gaskets (one to hold the housing to the stove, the other at the...
Dennis I agree it looks better without the ash pan. But you really don't notice the difference after while, and after owning a WS ash pan...
I guess that means you don't want an ashpan. Too bad, the ashpan is great.
Do you have any clearance issues with the IS? Since it's front loading I'm betting the front hearth clearance is higher than the FV. I'm not sure...
Dennis moved to where his milk crate moved, which is now FHC. :thumbs:
