Clean the orifice and the flame will be hotter!
Good advice by FlybouyD8.

A caution !!! Do NOT push anything, not even a "brush bristle" down the orifice. There is a "micro-drilled ruby jet" that you'll destroy if you try to clean it "physically"... Just use alcohol, let it soak and blow it out with "minimal compressed air"... This is one place where "more muscle" is going to destroy all efforts to fix the problem......
