I don't really stack the stove full of poplar. I'll mix it in with some other higher BTU stuff or just make a small fire to take the chill off. IF I packed it full, I'd expect maybe 4 hours of decent heat then a couple hours of radiant heat for a chilly afternoon when a 250 degree stove is enough ... like when its 50 degrees out in october/November
Thanks. The anticipation of getting to use the IS is driving me crazy! Lol. I have 2 big poplar standing dead and have been debating on processing them. I like having some poplar around but wasn’t sure if I wanted that much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
IF it's easy to get, yes, I'll process poplar. In my case, it was 100 yards from the house, and already piled up. nice big straight stuff.
