Properties of firewood

[Stereo]

Been scanning around a few stove makers and the like and all seem to have a page on the varying qualities of firewood. What I am shocked about is the amount of stove sites which imply that some woods can be burnt green and that others (pop, willow etc.) will never be any good even when bone dry. It seems most of them either copy and paste those stupid poems or write their own rubbish. There is a lot of copying going on and some funny ones too. If you google the following, you might find some of the worst offenders. One of them very near me who I bought my Esse from.

 

Apple: A very good wood that bums slow and steady when dry

 

Pine: Bums with a splendid flame

 

It's just appalling that these stove 'experts' repeat this rubbish day in and day out.

Hopefully you have bought your Esse from your local Esse dealer who gave you sound and sensible advice on fuel, maybe he even offered to supply some for you. ( I am an Esse dealer !!). An awfull lot of new stove owners have no experiance at all of open fires and no idea of the importance of wood quality.

 

I saw some Ash being delivered last week, the guy later told me he had bought it as seasoned and ready to burn, judging by the colour of the moss on it that tree was still growing the week before.
