Does anyone burn corn?

Looks like from what I got from the guys here I can convert it to pellets fairly easily. If not right away corn is cheap this year and I can drive 10 minutes and buy it from about 10 different farmers. I can get it bagged or by the truckload and I already have tons of feed bags so filling my own bags wouldn't be very difficult. But based on the feedback here I will definitely be looking into changing it out to pellets as they are easier and cheaper.

 

Well I brought the stove home tonight but after loading it with a forklift and picking up a corner to slide it, that thing is heavy. Not exactly sure yet how I will get it off the back of my truck.

 

Well I got it off the truck, backed the truck up to a bank and was able to get it just low enough to slide the pallet onto the tractor. Now I need to get this thing apart, cleaned and get it hooked up!

 

What a beast! Looks to be in pretty decent shape. Keep us posted.

 

Lookin forward to this thing cranking some heat out!

 

Look on the back of the stove, find the combustion blower, then look inside the firebox, and find the path that the exhaust gas must take to get from the firebox, to blower. That passage/passages is what plugs up and stops most stoves from a good burn. That's why so many good stoves go on CL. Some people don't know where to clean.


Get anair compressor, and a good nozzle with an 18" or so extention, and blow all that crud out while it's outdoors.
