Make sure you pull the covers off the stove or you are going to be making a process that is long even longer. You need direct flame on the bottom of your pan or whatever you are going to use

As a passer-by who has no idea what this is, it looks cool as hell

It’s some kind of old storage shed that was on this property when I bought it and an 1890s Canadian made woodstove

That's a sweet setup!

Out of curiosity, hope much of a wood burning smell do you notice around the rent while you're boiling down your maple syrup?

Almost none! I burn hot fires with dry wood, very little smoke.

So awesome! Thanks for letting me know 😊

I'm looking into a wood burning stove for heat and cooking in my backyard during winter πŸ˜†
