Did my second big clean yesterday on the p35i. Didn't take near as long as last time. From the stove being cool enough to work on to dumping a bag in was about a half hour. I was really excited about the lack of crap in the flue pipe. See attached photo. Last time there was quite a bit fly ash. I was burning the same crap pellets. Must of been a better batch....? Ripped open a pallet of somersets. Hope that gets me through the res of the winter. I'm liking pellet burning more and more everyday.

Still haven't did a big clean, burned 2.5 tons so far, as long as the flames stay healthy may hold off
 
My flue looked about the same last I pulled it.

It's been a combination of running the stove hotter than usual and burning super premium pellets (spruce pointes)

Honestly I haven't even been scraping the burn pot daily as it's been so clean. I probably do it once a week just to keep the igniter clear.
