I bring my stoves up to 500 deg. every time I load them. I check my chimney each fall BEFORE I fire the stove for the first time. Neither flue needed cleaning this past fall; first time there was no creosote build-up to speak of in all the years I've been burning wood. I own about 50 acres of wood lot here in Schoharie Co. and I never have to cut a live tree. My favorite wood is ironwood (hop-hornbean); after it dies and stands for a year it is ready to burn when cut. I just cut 4 dead elms (not one of my favorites) for my son's outdoor boiler. I saved some for myself and found it burns really nice. My Dad always told me that if you wait 'til most of the bark has fallen off a dead elm, it will be ready to burn as soon as its cut. I proved that the last couple of days. Ain't nuthin' like a nice wood fire to make you feel cozy in this cold winter weather. The hard work seems a little easier since the price of fuel got so high. LOL
