Started the stove, but had overfilled the pit. When I put the lid on, water ran over and got into stove, which sputters, but kept going. Thought it would dry itself out, which it did, but wasn’t all that efficient. When cleaning my gear tonight, noticed the insulation near the base of the Piezo lighter was all burned to white ash. A similar material appeared to be partially clogging some of the holes in the burner. Explaibs the loss of efficiency. At any rate, from now on, turn it off and shake the water off next time.
