Greetings I have had my Absolute Steel for a few winters now and I am finally 3 years (or maybe 4 depending on who you ask) ahead on wood so I am...
Thanks for the responses so far , the Drolet was exactly the type of good quality/affordable price recommendation I was looking for. Is there an...
Thanks for the recommendation, I will check it out! I would have kept the oil too, I like oil much more than LP. But we had a two tank setup...
Not sure where to put this because it involves multiple types of heat, so mods please move if necessary. Greetings! I am in the process of...
Looks like we might get our first frost/freeze in VT this weekend.
I did! They and everyone here as FW hoarders have helped me a lot over the years. Figured they would appreciate it since it is a fair about half...
My daughter drew a picture of our Woodstock stove for the Tunbridge Worlds Fair in VT. Figured you guys would appreciate it! [ATTACH]

I only actively try to add air to bring the coals down if I am doing 8 hour reloads which for me means we have highs in the low teens and below...
Adding air is huge, took me a while to learn that one :doh: Helps the massive coaling during a cold spell and gives you a more consistent heat...
Hah, figured as much, I never really need it that hot but could probably get it there, I try for 550 and reload every 12 hours unless the high...

I don' think 500 is over firing. The video below is cruising at 550 per the comments. I do think over 600 is entering over fire stage. [MEDIA]...
