Interesting. It seems I have once again loaned out my copy of the
Encyclopedia of Wood Heat--I think that is the title--so I can't look this
up.However I know, even without the book on hand, that if I keep my fire at
a temperature that registers 600F in the flue, I get a lot more heat per
stick of wood than if I keep my fire at 400F in the flue as I used to think
I should. I did once calculate how much 'a lot more' translated to, but
can't look that up just now.
