If you have a solo stove, there is one thing you need to know: ash will accumulate over time. And, if you don’t clean it out, it can be a real nuisance. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Open the stove’s door and remove all the ashtrays.
  2. Pour a pot of water onto the stove and turn it up to medium-high heat.
  3. When the water begins to boil, add a cup of baking soda and stir until dissolved.
  4. Carefully pour the solution into the ashtrays and close the door of the stove. Let it sit for about 10 minutes, then remove all of the ash using a vacuum cleaner or a broom and dustpan. ..
