Finally got my pre-owned 22 year-old Integra up and running today. I'm wondering if any of you users would comment on the idea of periodically emptying the burn pot by turning off the auger for a few moments and using a set of ChanneLocks (or similar pliers) to grab the burn pot and empty it into a fireproof container, then replacing the pot and turning the auger switch back on.
It would seem that would be far easier and more economical than allowing the stove to cool for 4+ hours first before cleaning the ash then going through the restart process.
Your thoughts?
