It's all good. As long as your warm. Now you can start getting your supply for next year, or the year after, slowly but surely. So that it will be seasoned nicely. Can you find these biobricks on sale?
It's BTUs
If it saves on the heat bill, smart move
Are you getting any scrounges from Sandy in you area ?
If you can be selective, avoid oak, takes longer to season
I wouldnt burn green wood no matter what. I have been mixing it in with some seasoned wood i have had laying around from camping trips, but that is all gone now.Might be a dumb question but I dont know. Are you going to burn just the bricks no wood or are you going to mix a little green wood with the bricks?
Im pretty new to this and having a hard time finding seasoned wood so I was thinking about buying a lot of the bricks instead.
The only scrounge is a big pine from up the road, and if the deal works out, i will be getting the wood from 8 oak trees on the same property.. I hope i get that wood because that will give me a nice start on my woodpile! So for right now i have a big black locust that i still am working on, (c/s/s ) a big pine that needs to be split and stacked. I am figuring the locust will give me at least 3/4 of a cord, and the pine about 1/2 cord. If i get all that oak, that will be at least 3 cords...but none of it will be ready to burn for at least 18 months...but i know of a place close by where there is alot of standing dead, and fallen down dead trees that i can cut up and burn today if i needed to... It will take some work and getting space for all that wood. I do like the biobricks for their ease of use and they are predictable (no runaways, dont have to worry about it being seasoned enough etc...)
