Who out there uses soft woods? We have lots of cottonwood, fast heat, tons of ash. What stoves are best for heavy ash woods? I am looking for large capacity and easy ash cleanout.
Don't know about the OWB but cottonwood burns about like paper. Splitting is not a problem as long as it is dry. Takes forever to dry out though.

What you have to remember is all wood has the same btu's by weight.Dry cotton wood is about like balsa.Doesn't weigh much so doesn't put out the heat by volume. It all burns though.
The best btu's are the cheapest,burn what you have....
Wise words. I usually get half way through January burning what others might reject as unworthy: jackpine, aspen, balsam fir, but it all grows right outside my backdoor!
