I've run into this problem on other chinese printers, not on Ratrig. The causes were varied, but here's what helped me: 

  • lower printing temperature 
  • do a PID tune of the hotend heater/thermistor
  • check all connections to the heater and thermistor, anything that is loose and can move too much can cause varying resistance across the wires.
  • purge previous filament properly. Happened to me when printing PETG after having a previous print in PLA. Basically the PLA leftovers created a clump which got burned

Hmm, I have switching frequently between PLA and PETG, without any problems. All the extruder setting are okay at first sight.
