How do I know how dry the wood is?

  • By far the best way is to use a moisture meter to measure the moisture content and this should be 15-25%.
  • There should be visible cracks on the end of the wood and this will tell you how well the wood is dried.
  • If you bang a couple of logs together they will give a lovely hollow sound if they are really dry, otherwise it will be a dull thud!
  • Finally if you have an efficient stove, dry wood will burn cleanly. If not dry enough the glass will go black and there will be build up of soot and tar in the flue or chimney.
