LOL "With this stove you need a large bush of aloe vera" The way she said it was really funny. She is right. I am a professional blacksmith. Even though have not burned myself on my wood cook stove, I have burned myself with hot iron at my work. Aloe vera really does work.

Great teaching video! Learned so much! Take care! Aloe Vera is a miricle cactus. We take the leaves that need to be trimmed off our plant and seal or vaccum seal put in freezer. Feels really good on burns. Can take gel and put in ice cubes. Have made a hydrating skin cream with aloe and castol oil...so many good things you can use it to heal, protect skin. Pure Liquid my Nana gave my great grandpa to drink. His urine was dark almost black and it became clear. The doctors had given him months to live and he lived another 5 years. Just thought I would share the wonders of Aloe Vera. If you get a female plant you can make new plants. I have about 20 right now! Make great presents in a nice little planter.

[@johnbriscoe5932]

Neat video. Lots of first person hands-on information which will help folks get started with understanding and using their new appliance. I would advise anyone wanting to use a woodstove or cookstove to seek out a good competent professional to ascertain the condition of their chimney before doing anything else and make sure that your proposed installation is up to snuff. There is A LOT more to this than can be covered in a video. This is not a criticism...just my professional observation. My wife and I established a business and started servicing/installing and maintaining solid fuel appliances and venting systems in 1988 and I am retiring and passing the business on this season. I am widowed now and will be home more to make sure my Grandkids are warm, well fed, and safe no matter what. With all of the crap and uncertainty out there I am installing a U.L. listed and tested cookstove (Waterford Stanley- acquired in trade) in the homeplace in place of a heater that I have pretty well worn out. Fof anyone thinking of doing this, please don't take for granted that what you have now is okay...or that what you envision is the best or only way to do things. Don't be afraid to get help. Not every project is a DIY project. Be safe.

[@janessa8793]

Thank you for sharing this video! I hope this couple who did an AMAZING job explaining and giving tips on the stove are still doing wonderful❣ I watched the whole video like I was watching old home made family videos.

I have an antique Vermont Castings wood cookstove. I have made the best turkey and bread in that oven. I have kept it just in case I need it.

[@carolmartin2503]

Wouldn't trade my cook stove for ANYTHING !!! It's over 100 years old, in great working shape, and I've cooked an entire turkey Thanksgiving dinner on it. Makes life much easier when you can keep 5 or 6 pots of food warm at the same time your heating the water and roasting the turkey.... and that part of the house is pleasantly warm .... ALL from the same 'fuel' ! Amazing. I'm glad they're making them again, in case this one doesn't outlive me!!!

[@ek9772]

Great video with heart warming, kind actors. 🙂 When I saw the cleaning procedure, I thought a bottom chimney metal box drawer might help them catch some of the stuff accumulating inside the chimney pipe, and enable them to, also, push the stuff from the stove into the chimney pipe. It should fall by gravity through a short metal slide into the drawer and simplify the cleaning process a little bit. They could ask a local masonry guy to do this.

[@semco72057]

While living at my grandparents house while growing up I got use to a wood cook stove and wood heater in their house and they did a great job for years. My grandmother cooked all of our meals on that stove and my grandfather, brothers, and I collected, hauled it, and cut it up for the stove and heater and they kept the house warm during both Winter and Summer. My grandparents kept a can on the heater, and on the stove to keep the humidity down and kept water in the cans.

[@terryedwards171]

In the summer my mom would send us south to spend the summer with my aunt. She had 2 stoves: a wood and a gas stove and we could only use the wood stove. She had an electronic iron and an old fashioned cast iron iron which we were only allowed to use to iron our clothes. We learned fast not to burn ourselves by the time the summer was over. Each room had a wood stove for heating during the winter. 😍

How much?

[@sukeywatson1281]

@@ioandumitru8747 3000 including delivery and the extra stove pipe. It has been worth every penny. We are just two people so the stove fits our needs very well. If you have a larger family you might consider the Pioneer Princess which is just a nicer and larger model. We did not get the warming cabinet but just the shelf above, I actually think this is better than the cabinet because I just quickly place food up there and it stays plenty warm. Invest also in trivets or just make simple triangular ones from flat stock so you have better cook surface temperature control. Hope this helps.

[@danielcoetzee5793]

This brings back a lot of old memories from my childhood. Making fire in a coal stove and cleaning it was my chore. Our stove was connected to a water supply which warmed bath and dish washing water. Between the stove and the wall was a little crawl space where the hot water pipes came out of the stove. In the winter I used to crawl in there legs first to warm up while my mother prepares dinner on the stove for us. We were six children but that was my exclusive little spot which I annexed for myself only. For this privilege I had to do the dishes every evening, my mother said.

And white vinegar will clean the scale right out. If you want something quicker use the commercial product "CLR" (Calcium, Lime, Rust). I watched a man clean an ice machine with it and a new paint brush. He brushed it on and while he was brushing it on the calcium started falling off. I've kept a bottle in the house since then. Great stuff but white vinegar works well too.

Have you tried any of the old recipes in the Foxfire series of Folk Cooking, and Remedies? I believe it is an ancient AGA wood/coal stove that is still on my Grandparents farm. They converted it to gas in the late 50s, and their grandchildren are still using it today. 👍👍💪👌 20:20 They make great old time style chimney sweep brushes, that are not as rough on the flue material as a wire hand held brush, or paint chipper, and make flue cleaning a lot quicker. Of course you should always inspect the flues afterward, to be sure you did not miss anything.

To watch the deer grazing in my meadow. But life served me another curveball and took my partner from me at a young age of 47. I to can no longer work as I have developed arthritis in my good hip and bone loss in other joints from being off-kilter from the hip loss. I love everything about surviving the cold winters with a cook wood stove. Planting your own food and putting it up for the winter time. I just happened across this video and loved everything about this couple. Sweet, warm people. I have been debating to get a small woodstove to heat my tiny 1000 ft. house. Even if I get just a potbelly stove, I want some area on top to possible cook breakfast on or tea and coffee. I can still gather up cut wood. and gather kindling from the woods near my home. I used to do everything around my home from repairs to the house, shoveling my driveway, planting a garden, etc. Well thank you very much for posting this informative and enjoyable video.

[@ciphercode2298]

@@itrow9526 if you're able to obtain a steady supply of wood,itd cut out alot of your energy bill. With an electric range and electric heat ours averages $240 a month throughout the year. Last year we used more killawatts per month,but our average bill was $180 a month. Our provider asked for and received a 9% rate increase last year and are now asking for an additional 7% increase. If they are approved for that our bill will be close to $300 a month,from only $180 a month 2 years ago. $3000 for this thing is an investment in our future. The only other 240vlt appliance that leaves is our hot water heater,which I'll change out to a heat on demand unit. If I can save $200 a month on our electric bill,thatll cover 2/3 of the cost of the stove in the first year of ownership. Our utility bills are gonna go up astronomically over the next few years and service may get sketchy thanks to our fine government. I'll spend now,and save big later.

Who can't afford one. It is a water heater, stove/oven, home heater, which requires no electricity. It is all about priorities. I have a wood stove, not a full oven and water tank, because I don't have the space. My stove is my primary heat for house, it is used to make food from time to time, makes a lot of coffee. I spent the money on a new stove when I needed to replace my old oil furnace. I put in a few electric baseboard heaters as backup, if we are gone for a few days. If we lose power, I can still have a warm house, a warm meal, and some warm water to clean myself. A new furnace couldn't do all that, and it would have cost more.

Here I am again. Still not having the wood stove oven I wish. We have had bad storms damaging the our roofs, uprooting huge pine trees in the garden and I had 2 mild strokes. Complications one after the other. I have had to get 2 gears down. The antic tile oven is carefully remounted and stored in the cellar. Step by step, I am still looking for a solution. That you replied to me, I am glad. With the expenses I had and will have, is a question if I can have such a one but I if you like, I could introduce you to one or 2 good wood stove installers. With my knowledge of English and German. I would gladly guide you to them. With the present energy crisis, maybe your wood-stoves could have a chance around this area.

We have a Baker's Choice in our ne retreat/home in Maine; it certainly factored into our buying decision and glad we did as our furnace went out and it was the heat, cooking, etc for the house.

OOhh, Im curious: how/what do you liike about the Baker? It was one of the models I looked at, and I wonder if I would've liked it better than my FireView.

I have a Baker's Choice. What don't you like about your Flame View?

Master class on how to own a wood cook stove. Thank you for sharing and such thoughtful instructions. I live in south east Texas. It gets mighty hot down here. Can’t imagine a wood cook stove burning 24/7, in the house. We do it a bit differently. Love the class though. Texas

Many Amish have a summer kitchen adjacent to the house, like a mud room to cook in during warmer months.

Great video. Very hel0ful. Love your home. Everything you need and everything in its place. I see you practice what my husband calls grandpa lazy. After you finish using something put it back right then. No need to clean up later. Lol

I'm trying so hard to listen but I'm distracted by the cute fur baby that so badly just wants daddy to give pets 🤣

I'd like to have one, one of the best. But still, keep as stove. Which I have me a Skete, monastery thing about a 1000 a C res of quality woods, plenty of clean fresh, spring fed creek with fish. Plenty of game, etc. Big log cabin well dried, all joints and layers saturated with high quality epoxy, then huge bolts joining the logs together, all joints doweled together and a high strength epoxy. Totally sealed, no bugs should be a threat. Or, maybe stone, or combo.😂

[@Traceman002]

always wanted a cabin with a wood stove to cook with
