I, of all people, forgot to turn mine off before i left for work this morning.

maybe it will be off when i get home from the thermostat and i can do the clearning that i wanted to tonight.
 
49 degrees out today - cleaned the stove, vent, did the LBT. Ready for the next ton!
 
As planned, I cleaned my P68, and I cleaned the ESP probe. Boy, what a difference that made; I cleaned it with that glass conditioner by Rutland. Flames were higher than I've seen them in a long time. I have to confess that I never have cleaned the probe, I will be cleaning it on a regular basis now.

All cleaned. Up and running again.
 
My first cleaning.

Burned about 35 bags so far and did my first cleaning today. Ash bucket was about 2/3 full and thats with me pushing everyhting I could into it. The only thing I found that had me worried was that after removing the plate with the 2 thumb screws I gently vacumed that out but found out there are wires in there. Sure is tough to get all the ash of that area.

What is a good interval to clean the ESP probe? any link on the instructions?
