I have been getting lazy and putting mine into ventilated barrow bags. Saves time on the load up but they then need tipped out and put in buckets to get them into boiler swings and roundabouts they seem to dry out fine

Got a Jotul no4 Easter island shape about 25 years ago as a stop gap and it’s still going door a bit loose and fire bricks need renewed was at some ones house with a modern woodburner and there did seem to be a useful difference in heat output as well as nice to have a glass door assume increased effiency would never pay for a new stove or be effective in terms of effort and co2 output (I gather and process my own wood) Quite fancy a change but is it just an indulgence any opinions? david
