Your grates grind up ash, mine just dump through the center sliding grate and around the periphery it gets somewhat ground up.

Here is a picture of a setup similar to the Crawford 40......
So what temps are you running at to form these clinkers?.

That chunk was from running 24 hrs @ 475-550* on the upper barrel.

Wow ! Those are almost big enough to be called "clunkers".

Reminds me of my first car - a beat up 62 Chevy. Big, heavy, and lots of rust everywhere !!!

No not bit coal. It was red ash anthracite, during some hot burns before I learned how to fish them out. They had time to grow lol
