    Me too.

    It's too warm to get the blocks out yet. Right now if I put more than 3 pieces of wood in the stove I'd be chooching us out. Soon enough though.

    This is probably the fullest load we have put in the Drolet. It has a med size firebox. All red oak shorts

    Yea! New pics!
    Not only is it fun to see how much one can get in the stove, but occasionally some interesting pics of the flames.

    I don't know how far back you can get your thermometer on the insert but, anyway I checked it out to see what the difference is Between The hot spot In the center Top of my stove And The thermometer Close to the front where it is in the pic ,(that's where the manual tells you to put it ) with the IR Thermometer, it shows 710 at hot spot , 600 straight up Near the front , So , about 100 degrees difference
