For investigative purposes, my secondaries fired less intense, and slower, and longer, and at about a 40 degree angle downward with 33% less...
Are you absolutely sure about that? If you have a link to something technical that says that it would be great. I can't wrap my head around that....
Quite mild weather today considering what time of year it is. Sitting at -9 C feels -15 C, or 16 F feels 6 F. Poplar chugging away same as always.
I'm actually more wondering the other way, less holes, less air, to keep the flames to a certain sweet spot on the baffles once it hits a certain...
My primary air plate is back to where it should be after my excitement last week, so I don't have a runaway stove problem either.
Another thought about covering or blocking the holes, would the velocity of the air pulled through increase in the other holes? It didn't seem to...
I totally agree, just a bit on the top end to keep it in check when the weather or draft makes it a bit excessive.
It's not the tubes themselves, although I had wondered about smaller/bigger/less/more holes in the burn tubes. The 6 holes I'm referring to are...
After tinkering with my stove one day, and realizing the secondary air inlets aren't adjustable in any way, I got to thinking. What effect might...
Sitting at -11 C feels -19 C, or 11 F feels -3 F. Poplar in the reactor.
While it's not the answer you're looking for, here's what I do. I simply fill a cleaned out clear jug (washer fluid jug is perfect) from the 5...
Sitting at -10 C, or 14 F this morning. Pretty easy on the wood supply with weather like this, but holy cow is it gloomy.
Sitting at -8 C feels -13 C, or 18 F feels 8 F this morning. It's actually colder than I thought it would be but still way above normal. Poplar...
Temps hovering just above freezing at the moment. This is extremely warm and rare for this time of year, and a shock to the system after the...
Living the dream here. Okay just kidding but it's -5 C or about 22? F out right now. Some chicken on the grill and it smells like heaven. If...
Currently enjoying -14 C feels -22 C, or 7 F feels -7 F. Poplar in the reactor. Face of stove was 340 and the side was still 300 after 6 1/2...
It's even warmer about an hour south in Saskatoon. They broke a warm weather record today with +5 C or about 40 F temperatures. But reading...
About that warm weather... sitting at -3 C, or 26 F. Has anyone seen my draft? I swore it was here this morning.:rofl: :lol:
I can only speak for the Englander 17 being set up this way. Who knows, the secondaries might pull air from within the primary air as well on my...
Tag along, fire off questions, it won't bother me in the least. I forgot to mention stuffing a wet tea towel in the air inlet for short times,...
