Like I have stated before, I do a thorough cleaning once a month but I decided to do a quick cleaning from the bottom up today since I had time and was just curious for whatever reason. I typically do a top down clean so I can get the cap and plus I also take off the black pipe from the stove and scrub that as well. Been running a few really strong fires lately so I was not concerned with the black pipe. As for the cap, I have a clear view of it from my back deck and nothing looks concerning there, no spark arrest to clog up.
Short of pulling a cloth though with the poly brush this is about as good as I can get with my brush. The brownish stuff is just loose dust like material that I could wipe off with my hand. It looks that way all the way up even though it looks really black in the pic it really is not at all. looks the all the way up. So, what do you people think, good enough?
