Yes! One big log does the job all night!!!! In the morning, I sift the ashes and save the
clinkers and restart the fire so easily. Our house stays about 80 degrees, we
have to open the bedroom window and shut the door to cool off to sleep well.

this morning I put in 5 logs and damped it down, and they are still going from 7am
its now 1pm, and the fire is hot. I poured water into the water pot on top and its
boiling. the logs have another few hours left in them, I did bring in 2 more
logs to the house just in case I needed them.

thanks!

PS we have a Magnolia bought 2nd hand from Tractor Supply company for
$400. Its beautiful, and every morning i just swipe the inside window with
some ammonia and some crumpled newspaper and its clean as a whistle
and all ready to go and look pretty for the rest of the day.
