Well, I could close the damper and only let in a little bit of air to slow down the combustion. This would let a big log go through the night but wouldn’t generate enough heat for a night this cold. This is what we do for cold nights, just not the really cold ones. For these ones I let the fire consume the logs as fast as it’ll do it and keep feeding it to get more heat faster.

T’en es où de la stère que t’as reçu en Octobre?

damn – the stove just eats too much wood too fast to keep it going all nigh long on a couple of big ass logs ?
