I have been burning this stove for about 3 weeks now, and finally decided I liked the Linetics pellets and the way they burned. So I bought a ton of them, and ever since the first bag off that pallet, I get black ash and have to clean my stove every day. What could that be from? I have to scrape the pot and wipe my glass every day now. What's my problem?

ok you have been burning for 3 weeks but it is new or is that 3 weeks this season?
if you are getting black ash it is from lack of combustion.
