The moisture goes up with the smoke and wants to coat the chimney more so as the water wants to condense out. A proper chimney, and a hot fire once a day, help keep these effects lower.
My understanding is ash wood can burn wet and not have as much problem with this as other woods. Low btu wet woods on the other hand are worse than average.
The trouble now is warmer weather you might not need a hot fire and try to get by with wet woods and keep the fire low. That keeps a constant coating going on the chimney. If you have already done so be careful. You don’t want a thick coating on your chimney to dry out and catch fire when you really stoke up with good hot fire.
If you don’t have the build up, then making a good hot fire once a day dries out and removes the thin coat you get every day without an issue and no buildup.
Without knowing what you got, it would be irresponsible to say what to do at this point.
