mellow said:Creosote build up, from when it hits the cold pipe with the moisture it attaches and then builds up. You will see this more often with people that burn in non-epa stoves that let them smolder the fire, just think how much crap is in that pipe.

Chrism said:Browning I don't know if I'm doing it right but before I goto bed I turn it down to where the flames go out then I open the air till the flames just come back on and that's where ill leave it. So it doesn't smolder it right above the line of smolder /flame.
Chrism said:Is there a need for concern ?
Chrism said:Ok just wanted to check , this is my first year of burning so anything I see that I'm not sure about I'd rather post it here to get the scoop on it . I'd rather be safe than sorry

Might just be my eyes, but there looks to be some black sticky stuff dripping down around the cap...maybe not, but a better pic might help.
