I had some pine boards in my basement that had to be 20 years old,so I figured if I have not used them yet why not burn them.
Stove was out for the first time this season but it was chilly at 8 this morning.
So I light up maybe 8 3/4 inch x 8 inch boards..diff lengths...maybe 10 -12 lbs.
It started out fine but maybe 10 mins into it ,it started going nuclear at any thing over 2 on the air .
You want to talk about fast heat..this was crazy!
I could not adjust it to just some flame..it was all or nothing it seemed.
I shut the air way down and the cat got red hot..I mean red hot..temp next to the prope on stove top was 750..I have never seen that before with my BK.
Thing I thought was strange was that pine made my glass dirty real fast..must be it was out gassing to fast for my cat to eat it?
Any ways..I was surprised as to the amount of heat it gave off for what little I had in there.
Anybody burn a lot of pine?
