Very interesting Ive been burning since the begining of November good and hot and only dry hardwoods. Today is in the 60's so I let the stove burn out to clean the ash and I noticed that there was a black liqued that had run down the front of the stove from under one of the doors then I noticed a large puddle in back of the stove under where the pipe comes out. It looks almost liqued and as black as used motor oil but it is dry like dust and wipes right off the concrete floor it also has a very metallic shine to it. I gave the chimney a good cleaning back in october and the pipe was spotless.
Today the weather was very warm in the low 60's and muggy. The stove burned out sometime this morning. Could the temp difference between the pipe and the outside air cause consensation to form and run down the pipe bringing some creosote with it but in a liqued form? Other then that idea I have no idea what it could be.
