In this video I try starting a fire using the top down method! Actually this worked out very well and I would encourage you to try it! I think I found a new and easy way to start fires!!!
Hi from regional NSW Australia!! I’ve been doing the top down method for near on 4 yrs now, and I love it. It saves on wood and kindle use, and is quicker to get going and heat than the bottom up method - just have to make sure you get a roar to heat up your flue, then Bobs your mothers brother! 👍 Nice video dude! Thanks.
I have used the top down this year for the first time & I like it a lot. Works great!
Sure does! Glad it’s working for you too.
I would use a little fat wood under the log to restart the fire ... small pine kindling soaked in bacon grease or used oil.
Top down works great for the first burn , but in order to keep it going throughout the day it becomes a bottom up. So unless you pull the coals and restack the wood, place coals on top this process isn't sustainable unless I'm missing something. Nice job on keeping the stove clean my glass tends to soot up.
Yeah after initially starting I then add a log here and there when needed. Thanks! And thanks for the comment!
Top down is just to start. It’s the most efficient way. When everything is established and the firebox is up to temp put some more logs on.
Primary/secondary air .open or shut or pertially open..also amwhat about the damper?
Only one air adjustment to the stove and to start it’s wide open then closed about 60% while running.
Them fire logs is cheating 😂 but if you use them save the money and buy the full size one then just whack off a small chunk for starting.
Yeah they are but they help a lot!! Good idea though I have seen the large ones!
