What are you burning in your stove this winter 2010

[Stephen Blair]

HI stephen nice fruit bowl have you got any for sale jon pm

 

My dad makes them Jon, he gives them to friends for chrimbo. Ian Leach on here sells them, if you need any for the good lady:thumbup:

Half ash and half hotmax or beech and hotmax. Dont burn this combo if you dont need heat you will be sweating in your shorts.

[antipesto]

Ash, oak, silver birch and a few bits of hawthorn - all well seasoned:001_smile: After that runs out I have some more ash and damson and a small ammount of sycamore, all only cut about 6 weeks ago though!

Having another clearview stove delivered in a day or two. That will eat a hole in the log pile with two stoves going

At the risk of appearing stupid whats hotmax

[gensetsteve]

Hot max is a by product of bed max. Compressed pine shavings and dust to form a brick. Burns hotter for about half the time of a log. Made a few miles down the road so I can collect 2 tonnes at a time in 20kg bags at a good price. If you want to try some scats have it but they charge more than twice our price. Its no competition to dry logs but sits nicely along side. When I run out I miss it on my stove but I would not want it on its own.
