[QUOTE="heatsaver, post: 3390642, member: 76358"] I have had a corn stove for 8 years. Love it, heats house fine. When I first got the stove (used) I created a simple spread sheet in excell, using the BTU out put of LP, corn and wood pellets. Based on the BTU value of 1 gallon of propane versus the same BTU value of corn(13 lbs) or (11 lbs). of wood pellets, corn is till a better value versus propane, even at $6.32 a bushel. wood pellets are alot different as eveyone is selling them now, you really have to watch the price. Anything over $3.50 for 40# is more than corn in my area. While I'm very happy with my corn stove I long for the days of $1.80 bushel corn so I am currently building a forced air outside wood stove which is how I got to the Arborist site to begin with.
