No Density from ConvertVDB Node?

Rendering in Houdini with an engine that needs VDBs to render pyro sims.

I seem to recall this just meant passing the bgeo sequence into a convertVDB node and then another filecache node to save it?

However, when I inspect my convertVDB node I see my density field is 0,0,0 (as opposed to having density values when inspecting the file node loading my bgeo sequence!). So, nothing gets rendered.

I've tried using *, @name=density, and just leaving the group field empty.
My other fields are getting there (temperature, flame, etc) just not density!

Am I missing something? Using Houdini 19.0.531

Thanks!

According to the image I sent, if there is information in the node information window for the density field, it means that the information is stored and exists and you only need to use the volumevisualization node.
But if there is no information, it means that your file is not saved properly
