I came home from work yesterday and that Sunday night "quick overnight burn" was still burning...Nonsense, overnight burns are fairly easy with a 3 cu ft stove.

Same here. I have a tall flue and I think it hurts draft this time of year much like it rips smoke up the pipe when it's very cold. I about give up trying to get something going when the weather is mild like this.I have trouble with "quick" overnight burns. My stove really likes to be about 3/4 full at light off to perform what I consider normal. As I've said before, this stove is not built for quick, shoulder season fires. At least not in my experience.

Quick question, I pulled out the cat in my King as I was cleaning the stove. I have to replace the cat gasket as they fall apart when removed.
Anyway, I have a CSL log just hanging around, suppose it would't hurt to burn it with the cat out of the stove? Figured it would help with the chimney sweeping. What do you think?
Well, with the cat out you wouldn't have a need to open the bypass at all. Nothing there to bypass.
Ok, I'm out before I get myself in trouble
I found yet another perk to having a Blaze King! I never got around to cleaning out the stove after I snuffed my last fire in late May. I put the charcoal to use! Had the smoker to 200 in less than 10 minutes!
Here's one to close out the 15/16 burning season. Advice on a cleaning / chimney sweeping procedure for an Ashford 30?
Debating now on using my usual sweep (not the most fastidious, but honest and affordable), or calling the BK dealer from whom I bought (probably more than double the cost, but they're true professionals). If I go with my usual sweep, I feel like I'm going to have to give some guidance on the particulars of handling this stove.
Thanks!
