This year with the wood seasoned for a year and some longer I've been able to close down the air for my overnight burns, attached are some pictures from last night with some cherry in the Lopi Liberty. Stove top temp was 700.
I can not wait till next year. I'm currently splitting for next year. This will be the first time I have ever had more than 8 month wood to burn. I have high expectations for next year. My count so far is 2+ cords, by January I hope to have 4+. Tell me I will love it...

Zap, at 700 degrees that should have kept you nice and warm. So far we have not had very cold weather but cold enough that we've burned for quite a while. At this time of year though the weather can turn cold pretty darned fast and we are prepared for it. I see we have a chance of rain/snow tomorrow night and expect that to become more normal from here on out. We've had some pretty warm (relatively) Novembers as of late so I figure we are due some cold days next month. Time will tell.

Sav I'm finding this year it's burning hotter because of the seasoned wood. The weather has been cold and damp for the last month so we're burning through some wood.

Zap, how much do you figure you have gone thru so far this burn season? Our weather has been about the same as yours and we have used about 1/2 cord so far.

I have two cords of 2 year old oak and 18 month old Cherry (from a huge dead branch).
It is bump season here in Western North Carolina. It's been warm, but some nights have dipped into the 30's. I have been cranking up the old VC Resolute at sunset. I wake to a 72F house.
