    60 bags of pellets and 3300 lbs of corn so far. I think the furnace has a taste for corn. Seems to eat it pretty hungrily.

    Yeah, I'm pretty happy. Even the wife remarked how warm it was the other day, and even said: "You can probably turn it down. It's pretty warm in here". No frying pans here!:thumbs:

    Snowing and 30 dgrees outside and I am warm and toasty running just the stove from the basement. Did I say that I LOVE these stoves? :thumbs:

    So my first count of the season has us at 92 bags as of January 24. Not bad and on track for 4 ton or under. :)

    I at about 3 tons right now total for the house and shop. I've burned two+ tons of Uncle Jed's and around 30 bags of Farm and Barn's hardwoods. I just put the last bag of UJ's in the ST Croix a few minutes ago. Gotta wait for my SS check to come so we can buy another load on the 3rd.

    I'd love to, but hubbys income is here and I can't tolerate air conditioning either. Yep, I am a PIA.

    My cabin is 24 foot square,3 stories,used to heat from the basement,now have stove on 1st floor,do not try to heat above 68 degrees,have figured out over the years the "break point" of heat loss here,why are you wasting so much money?
