Try to tell that to Genetics.

Now in cat mode... Getting lazy and some ghost flame...temps will now rise... Still applicable to pellet thread as the Jotul now cranked, will keep oil off which means I now will keep 52i on all night to get heat upstairs. The 52i is located in open concept cathedral ceiling with open access to upstairs bedrooms. When running pellet, we keep all 4 bedroom doors closed as it gets too dang hot. I usually shut the unit off before bed, let the Jotul die out (coals in the morning) and let the oil take over at 60' setting.

Photographing Fire is not easy. I was snapping away. Look closely and you may find the fire devil

The Englander on level 9 for the first time. Only left up there for 10 minutes. Hot, Hot, Hot

damn.. I see it too...
actually I think I see 2 of them...
time to start drinking..

Mines been on stove temp on 7 for most of the day, pic does not do it justice, it's blasting pretty good, and eating up the pellets fast!

I don't have any pictures of "full burn". It's been over 7 years since I ran it on high for a bit which is setting 8. It's a full blown vortex fire blowing machine on level 8 and is not needed. This stove is a Bixby 115.

The stove is still happily running right now cycling between level 1 and 4. An occasional requirement of level 6 when the temps drop below zero.

Here's a video of half throttle level 4 six years ago. Listen to Obama and my dog was mad at him lol.

It's made in Italy I think...
also runs on Progresso Bread crumbs I heard..

XXV fresh startup. Never had her roaring on 7, generally on room temp.

The glass is hit but the pdvc still kicks out the btu's from the sets.

And has sideways flame. Lol

Yes, it's made in Italy and smells like pizza when burning. . Great stove thus far with almost 2 tonnes burned. Expensive though, $5600 installed.

Here's my PC45 running at a fair pace (stove setting is 2) running 80% corn. I don't need to burn it much harder than this.

Overlook, a little practice and observation goes a long way and you'll learn the 45 in time. What everyone here says can be summarized as becoming a student of your stove and home.

I took ultra-detailed logs for the first three years. Every stove setting, how much fuel was burned and how often it was added, and inside & outside temperatures. Plus the various fan settings and furnace blower settings. My hopper has a tape measure strip attached inside so I could accurately measure fuel usage. I have lots of data. I found what works and what doesn't.

It doesn't hurt that I'm a thermal engineer for electronic systems I have plenty of measuring instruments at home.

About 80F in the room with 10F outside. We love it hot.
