Nozzle clogging

The stock HF nozzle clogged after a few hours of printing regular PLA. Cold pulls, using a needle in the nozzle, slowing the print down or higher temps didn't help getting rid of the issue. I've ordered a regular 0.6mm nozzle and swapped it, this worked for about 20 hours of printing, now the nozzle clogs as well. I've got a factory assembled CORE one.

Anyone else had this issue and knows what the resolution is? I also own a MK3S, never had any issues like that with a brand new nozzle.

Profiles used: 0.32mm SPEED / 0.2mm SPEED
Filament: Generic PLA with 230°C nozzle and 70°C bed

RE: Nozzle clogging

It may be just a poor quality of filament. What brand is it?

Mostly Overture PLA (regular and matte variants) and some ERYONE spools.

After a lot of testing with the support chat they were able to help me. The hotend thermistor was damaged and thus the temperature reading was way off. After replacing it and doing some cold pulls, the printer is up and running again.
