This is my second year having my st croix prescott exl. Last year went well, i thought i had learned a lot but maybe not!.
The first part of this season everything went well. Recently i have been having major clinker buildups in the burn pot. I clean the stove roughly once a week sometimes more. i cleaned the stove saturday and 3/4 of the pot was a solid clinker. When i removed the ash pan to vacuum that it had a good cup of unburned pellets in there which has never happened.
I just turned the stove up on 5 to burn off some ash (i do this almost once daily) and noticed the pot is just so full the pellets are spilling out the side and into the ash pan.
I shut the stove down and pulled the pot out and once again solid clinker. Why is this happeneing now and never before? I am burning the same pellets as last year.... Whats up with it? Thanks
