I'd like to bring this topic back to discussion.
Has someone got more experiences with printing colorFabb's WoodFill on a UM2?
Is the WoodFill fine working with the 0.4 nozzle of UM2 or is it necessary to change to a 0.8 nozzle?
I did two testprints with laywoo-d3 but always got a clog.
The first print was done with 0.1 mm layer height (what is too little) and maybe too high printing temperature. For the second print i went up to 0.25 mm layer height and only 205 °C. This time the print started good however after the first 3 or 4 layer I got a clog again.

Finally got in some spare nozzles so I could drill out to 0.8mm.
For the right print, an 0.8mm nozzle is pretty awesome. It just goes so fast!
I really loved printing with the fine. Like Ian, I also fought with some clogging, but the material is just so good, that it's worth the battle. Looking back, I had no trouble on my first prints, but let the material sit in the nozzle overnight after the first prints. So, I'm guessing that was probably the issue.
The coarse is pretty awesome as well, and with the 0.8mm presents no clogging issue.
I've been printing up a ton of these letter bowls as gifts for xmas. This one will be filled with candy and given to my daughter's preschool teacher. Layer height on this is a super chunky 0.4mm, but the grain of the wood actually hides it pretty well until you get really close.
