I would have this issue when the filament was coming off the spool, sometimes it would bind on the spool a little, just enough to cause the issue. If the extruder is struggling to pull the filament, the hobbled bolt can start chewing the filament. To mitigate this, every so often during a print, especially for long prints, I would rotate the spool in the feed direction several times to create a lot of filament slack on the spool to decrease the chance of binding and make it so the extruder wouldnt have to pull as hard on the filament.

In the meantime, I switched from a 3.0 mm hot end to a 1.75mm hot end. The thinner filament is a lot lighter and easier for the extruder to pull than thicker filament.
