What are you burning

[mickdundee]

You're doing well. I've given up trying to explain to my Mrs that tightly screwing up newspaper is not the best way to get kindling going. :001.

 

It's only took best part of five years

 

My lurcher likes turning logs into kindling as well. Much to the wife's amusement!

Yew, walnut, spalted beech, laburnum, all those big funny twisty bits that won't split (any species) and that really dark oak you get sometimes.

I'm burning my way through a pile of larch. Hopefully get some more in the future, prefer it to hardwood even if it does burn a bit faster. Gets the temp up nice and fast and my burner seems to prefer it to hardwood.

Got some green laburnum any good when seasoned?

I burn softwood and got a big beech tree this summer for cutting it up, it's all split and in the shed so probably burn some beech next year!

My wife was burning the chimney last Saturday. You could see our house from space. Coni beech silverbirch pine

Mostly Sycamore and beech arisings this year and have a pile of "stuff" that I won't sell all knotty twisted bits of small trees that my gardener mate dumps on my drive. Strangely I enjoy burning the twisted knotty stuff, it's like tetris in the stove with the added fun of trying not to get third degree burns. As for the mrs and the fire......

My mate on the other hand burns body parts all year round. (Works at a medical incinerator)
