    St Croix Auburn Question

    I have two St Croix Auburn stoves that I currently burn corn. Stoves work great but I do get build up on the bottom corners of the glass, and this will happen a day or two after cleaning. Usually take a razor blade to scrape the black off. Both stoves are vented straight out the wall. I have...
