Hit the furnace over the past couple of days and here are some thoughts.

The caked/baked on stuff is a bugger to remove. Not just the thick stuff near the auger but the whole thing is covered with crud. I burned what I thought were pretty average pellets. In total 7 tons. Some were really good while other were junk. And the junk were from my home state...I believe that most of the crud I see now is from that late season ton. I wire brushed it all down and it looked ok. Then on a whim I put a wire cup on a drill. I bet I have at least 1/16" baked on everywhere!
Any tips to remove it and get that sheen back?

Paul
