Since there are so many different ways to burn in a stove, and every stove is variable, I have decided that I was going to make a quick reference guide for when visitors come, or when other people besides my wife and I are loading up the stove.
Any feedback is appreciated, but the end goal is to be at the smiley face![Smile :) :)](/talk/styles/default/xenforo/smileys/grin.gif)
This is also on the assumption that you are burning things that com-bust decently (good wood).
First you need to start out with the basics figure out if you are cold enough to have a fire, or if there is nothing to worry about:

Once you have gotten the stove aflame, you will want to probably be a little bit more specific about what you are doing and what you are measuring. I did not put the part about arguing if the stove should be hotter or you should take your pants off.
