As an experiment , when it will be dry at night , wrap fiberglass insulation around the outside chimney to see if that helps with draft. It cools of quite a bit at night in the high desert. How dry is your cob ? If your cob is green then it must dry out and heat up to draft properly. Are you closing off the feed tube after the last wood burns , or leaving it open all night ? Are you using firebrick to make your riser ? If yes, then consider making a cast riser with fireclay & perlite and using your brick to build a bigger J tube.
