Hey Friends –

I just installed my first wood stove, an Englander 17, and am loving it!

BTW: I owe everything from the selection of the stove to how-tos about the installation to these forums - thanks for all the wisdom so far!

I'm wondering if someone with experience with this stove could tell me how to stack the wood in its small firebox to maximize the burn time.

I'm new to all this, but it feels like I'm spending an undue amount of time feeding wood into this little beaster.

Many thanks for your help!
