That's a beautiful stove, Michelle. I saw them when doing research for our fireplace insert, which is the way we went - our house is on the small side.
What have you got in mind for cooking?
I've been canning my own butter.
How do you do that??Re: Long term food, woodstove, greenhouse rec's

You pressure-can it.
Do you have a pressure-canner? It's not a pressure-cooker.Re: Long term food, woodstove, greenhouse rec's

Yeah, Po'boy - low intensity is my selected technique.
Pantry, shelves, and canned goods- always rotate (oldest up front).
I may be in a moment of nirvana but my fears of internal problems are on the wane. And this little incident in the Pacific will get the Navy off its arse and they will forget this "persons" BS and man up.
If I lived where it got cold I'd marry that woodstove of michelleo's.
Good lookin', Hot, and low maintenance; what more could a fella' ask for?

You can can everything with a canner.
If/when you get the canner, get Bell's Book of Canning, it'll tell you how in there. To quickly recap: the jars have to be semi-boiled, the butter needs to be heated just to boil, the butter goes in the jars, they go in the canner and .... the pressure and time is in the book.
What kind of maters?
