most of this comes from not spending enough time getting dialed in.

like just about everything there's a few great sights with a lot of info.

Anthracite Coal Forum

most of the coal i'm burning is rice in a stoker boiler.

as too the ash it can suck, if you do anything other than carry it out of the house and dump it.

iv'e got several containers with covers, so no ash problems for me.

the best part is the even, long and adjustable heat output
