[QUOTE="NSMaple1, post: 6157329, member: 113429"] With my experience though, with a gasifier, you don't really want the wood 'going' on the upper end of the 'fire'. You want it to cook the gases out (pyrolisis) with only the bottom end on the coals really burning (and making more coals) - as the load settles, the bottom burns up. Leaving the bypass open will reduce your efficiency and not burn the dirties, for that period of time - not how it was designed to work. They are prone to bridging, just a characteristic. Fairly uniform splits usually help with that, and not stacking the box tight. [/QUOTE]
