Prusament ASA best material but clogging?

I have now used about 3kg of Prusament ASA and have noticed that with a 0.4 Nozzle the filament tends to clog. I use the MK3 with the latest firmware and the PrusaSlicr and the default settings for printer and filament. However, I usually have a clogged nozzle after long prints and pauses.

With PLA or PETG I have not yet noticed this.

Since last week I tried a 0.6mm nozzle.

RE: Prusament ASA best material but clogging?

Does anyone else have the same experience?  I use PLA, PETG, and ABS.  I was thinking about moving to ASA since it is more weather / UV resistant.  However, I do not want to face constant clogging.  Does ASA clog a lot?  How is the experience printing with ASA as compared to printing with ABS?

Thanks!
