Hi all. I'm trying to get the most heat out of my 10-CPM , my settings have varied, with the top two always set at 9-9 and stove set at 5 for corn.
After speaking to Mike he had me set it at 2-5-1 on the bottom three buttons
I got about a 4 to 5 inch yellow and blue flame but not much heat.
Next I changed it to 3-6-1 and got a little more heat.
Next came the 4-7-1 it over feeds and backs up the chute towards the auger.
??? Are there half settings? 3 is not enough fuel and 4 is to much fuel.
I've played with more air up to 7, should I bring it up more?
I've played with different fuels, and different amounts of 12% dry fuel corn, my best burn so far was with pellet pro and a mix of 60/40
Any suggestions are welcome.
Need to find the sweet spot.
