Cubic mini wood stove in Grandpa's tiny cabin

Quick review on Grizzly cubic mini wood stove.
Used it on and off for approximately 6 months.
It's a great stove and I highly recommend it.

That is an absolutely beautiful little place! I saw you mention peace and serenity I can imagine, it is peaceful, quiet and calm. Thank you for sharing this.

[@highstepperARF]

You can clean the glass by dampening a crumpled piece of newspaper, dipping it in ash and scrubbing the window clean.

[@GRIZZ357]

Cool little setup brother, the stove might be sucking a bit to much air causing the quick burns. In the video you can see the flames being sucked out of the stove, slow the air intake and get a little more time on your burn. (my opinion only)

[@4EZPAY]

To heat up a cold cabin use seasoned wood. Once cabin is warm or you want the stove to heat all night without having to get up then use half seasoned wood. The coals will burn the non seasoned wood.

[@MinerMaGold]

We had a problem with the glass and then realized if u clean it with the ashes and newspaper you are good to go.

[@craighellberg6269]

Very nice Sir. I love the installation of it being hung on the wall. That’s perfect. Very good video thank you.

[@morningdove3140]

We have the same problem with the glass coating over in our pellet stove. We've had it for twenty years and tried everything. Love the little cabin and stove.

[@TrinityRidge1959]

Hello I own a grizzly i put it in my 28 foot tin can vintage camper, I have the floor pedestal mount. Let it burn the ash off the viewing window. No need to clean it. The heat of the fire will burn it off. The grizzly heats my camper nice and toasty. Very nicely done

[@sharoneasley]

Balsam Acres Homestead I’m going to buy the grizzly from my school bus. I heard what you said if you let it burn itself off the glass, it’ll be fine.

[@jimwater8399]

Nice stove and Little cabin house, you did a good job there alright!

[@cyberjoe77]

Nice stove set up. Would have liked a quick look around the cabin. 😁

[@sharoneasley]

The cabin is beautiful. That’s the stove I’m going to buy; you did a good review thank you.

[@PecanBaby...]

I love this little cabin what a cool place to hide out in for some peace and quiet. Hello from Ireland 😊👋

[@garrisonstanleigh6146]

WOW what a sweet and clean design for a cabin .Great set up . :-):-):-):-)

[@veraciousreasoning863]

pull the ambers towards the glass. I have a cubic and i never get it black for more than a couple minutes

[@LostCaper]

Beautiful little stove. Awesome cabin. I will be building in the spring

[@jimsteele7108]

Let er burn hot, that'll clean off that glass. Btw, love that lil' stove.

[@garyd5622]

If you would install a heat sink like a water tank to absorb the extra heat, you wouldn't have to reload for up to three days.

[@wallaceviviansadventures2095]

nice spot and a great stove for it. i got a bigger glass stove at my cabin. i burn season wood and clean the glass with news paper it will work for a few burns an i give it a quick clean and its good to go again.

[@Pinerocks]

Always enjoy your reviews, looks a cosy place!!

[@William_Wakeman]

Enjoyment and peace of mind out weighs the cost. It's my little get away. With 11 Grand-kids it also gets used quite a bit, and I can sit on the front porch and watch them play in the creek. It was a great investment.

[@artistaloca4]

@@William_Wakeman Sounds so sweet. Im looking to put something like this in my 210sq ft living space motorhome. What do you think?

[@christopherkasik3291]

That looks awesome ! I love the hanging shelf, it is such a great way to effectively use the space . I have a Heartstone stove with a large glass window . I use Perkins Hearth Glass cleaner , it is a paste and leaves a silicone film which helps to keep the heavy soot from building up. Also the wood should be about 20- 25% moisture content with that small of a cavity. Great video!

[@artistaloca4]

How to measure wood moisture content ?

[@proudpatriot9062]

Perfect size for my tool shed... 12x16 ... thanks for sharing. .. double vent the eaves .. adjustable eaves.

[@lafarms]

The newer stoves will not damper down to nothing, they have a hole in the damper. Pull the damper plate out weld the hold shut and you can have a much longer burning fire.

[@royramey5659]

When your stove is cold, take some news paper, crinkle it up in a ball. Dip in cold water, dip it into ashes, and clean wood stove glass with it. Works really good , better than store bought. Try it and you'll do it that way from now on, guaranteed. ROY

[@paulbartram6374]

Hi wet news paper will clean glass really good and some dry news paper to clean up with .great little burner

[@markrigsby2425]

Great design ,with the shelf.

[@chrisdettmann2989]

Try seasoned “dried” wood to keep the glass clean buddy😉

[@ravenfeather7087]

The best way to keep the soot off the window is to burn a hot fire. When you damper it off the soot will re-accumulate but then just build another hot fire to burn it off.

[@chrisevans8308]

Try using a damp towel and the ashes to clean the glass. Works great for me.

[@venessaevans8674]

I have the cubic mini in my tiny house ans I love it. If you used the presto logs the lighter color ones, and cut them up smaller. My cubic mini will burn for 4 or 5 hours with the damper about half way open. Alot of times ive came home after being gone all day and still have coals. There great little stoves.i know the aize you have you can get a cook top for the top of it. I was going to go that size but I got the cubic mini cause they do heat up really well and they will cook you out.

[@minenot4753]

My full size stove only lasts as long as yours so I think you have a great little stove there

[@Whitsy-cx1ph]

You can also get a creosote cleaner in a spray bottle. Takes the tar off the glass like nothing. I use it on my pellet stove glass window.

[@2010tck93]

To clean the soot from the glass , just use anything like windex on a paper towel and dip it in the fireplace ash. The ash is mildly abrasive and you’ll be shocked how it cleans the glass between burns. Way easier than a razor blade

[@michaelbyrd2043]

Yes it typically builds up on the glass you won't find many stoves that glass doesn't go black on

[@Unwrapasmile]

Looks awesome, nice install.

[@sandramoore2914]

Nice little stove 💖💗💖

[@snoddycasualplayah3241]

that's an awesome Cabin, love the stove

[@aguileratreeservice9189]

Nice set up! Make sure wood is dry because wet wood could cause that and open up damper more maybe! But again very nice set up

[@treescape]

Does it have an airwash? This brings the hot air down the front of the glass and cleans it.

[@coconuts5044]

I made a comment earlier that was salty and I deleted it but I thought this was someones home like living in it and I watch other vids that made that clear no one actually lives in it. Either way a sweet cabin

[@airratchet7313]

The build up on the glass is from moisture in the wood, if the wood is dried and seasoned the glass should stay clean. A good hot fire should clean the glass, you can wet a rag and dip it in ash to clean the glass works way better and faster then a razor blade.

[@stacyadams112]

I have a large (bigger home) wood burning stove and its glass gets black too.. and my only complaint :) Thanks for your review!

[@louiedinofa555]

Easiest way that I've found to clean the glass is to wet a rag or a paper towel, dip it in the ashes and start cleaning. Works like a champ. Give it a try and let me know if it worked for you. Good luck!!

[@twinkletoes22221]

Before you burn use the ashes from that are cold and clean the glass. Works like magic.

[@darnellgoggins]

Try a damp rag dipped in your wood ashes. It should clean your glass up easily.

[@meyou9651]

Nice how you mounted it off the floor.

[@roseannwood899]

When the glass is cold, OVEN CLEANER does a great job cleaning it !!!

[@lucasmahood1930]

When the stove and ashes are cold, mix water and ashes to make a paste and use it the clean the glass. I've used this procedure for decades and it works great.

[@Uisci81]

Gary Tolbert brilliant thanks!!

[@RVROOFINSTALL]

Try to adjust the damper so the burn is slower. Also hard woods burn slower than soft woods like pine. Elm Burns real slow, pecan burns slow. But pine, poplar mahogany....those softer woods will burn faster and hotter. I had a barrel stove that I put a double damper on it.

[@mantislake4141]

His pipe appears to be double-walled so there's no damper. Most newer stoves have a baffle that prevents the heat from going straight up the flue and therefore have a lever on the stove to control box air flow

[@williamfrancis5395]

The wood you are burning is not dry enough. If it is totally dry or kiln dried it does not blacken the glass. QED

[@timtravasos2742]

Nice. I like the fan.

[@SweetpeaandLilly]

This is how I want mine installed. I do not have a good feeling about putting it through the roof.

[@johnlone207]

Love the little cabin!!

[@katherinemcilwain8025]

I switched to BioBlocks several months ago...glass door is still clean.

[@bushcraftrebelknifes8970]

The cabin and stove look great

[@dianeclemmer1344]

Looks great! Did you get the fan from the same place?

[@JDKvideos]

Love the little place.... I would be a little worried about that tree being so close to the stove pipe.

[@William_Wakeman]

So far it does not seem to be a problem, but eventually I will be cutting down the tree.

[@supersoul4541]

Lovethecabin

[@gremlin60]

newspaper diped in water and the sot from the stove is a good way to clean the glass

[@eileenmaschal9505]

Love that little stove

[@jm4672]

I liked and subscribed I like the video

[@markpro96]

Great video! So its been 3 years are you still happy with the Grizzly? I noticed the vent pipe you used is a low heat meant for a pellet stove. Any issues with that? Stove doesn't get too hot for the pipe? Nice little cabin!

[@William_Wakeman]

Still happy with the Grizzly. Stove doesn't get too hot for the pipe. Everything works great.

[@ronalonzo3976]

Give it up on the glass they all do that...try closing your damper more at night so your fire last longer and burns longer...I only have to reload my stove once at night when its cold....

[@aubreygmcghee]

Try sme 0000 steel wool on the glass as well. It wont scratch glass and should take it right off even easier than a razor blade..

[@rstevewarmorycom]

Let it cool, and use wet newspaper to clean the inside of the stove glass.

[@flunkywill2000]

After its toasty warm are you closing down your primary and secondary air controls? This may increase burn time.

[@jm4672]

Your glass will always turn black there's really nothing you can do but clean it everyday other than that why do you have it sitting so high I don't understand I mean I set mine low because it's the heat that puts out go straight to the top

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

Very nice!

[@mindymcintosh9865]

I heard if you put small round chunks of wood in..they last longer in the night.

[@user-ht4gb2fw4e]

I'm in bro! Gotta get one!! My cabin is exactly One half bigger than his!

[@bobstranzenbach4700]

Does the fan turn by heat rising in the stove?

[@launabanauna496]

Yes.

[@davymc91]

open both dampers after wood gets going will burn hotter and remove dirt from glass

[@lindanwfirefighter4973]

Take a newspaper and dampen it. It will clean the glass extremely easily. No need for your knife. It also help prevent build up of soot as quickly.

[@nickdanne7270]

Great review, thankyou! Have you by any chance estimated the amount of wood you use in a winter?

[@divinesignatures6225]

Wouldn't you be able to clean the glass with easy off oven cleaner? Seems like such a shame to have a nice fire and not be able to see it.

[@susandoerr3896]

nice job,

[@sunshineisfine2]

Again awesome cabin. Had to see if there were improvements and surprise there was. How is the silicone caulk holding up?

[@hamjordanp]

How are you doing with your creosote buildup in your stove pipe? I set my stove up just about the same as yours and it just clogs up. I have to clean mine every two weeks

[@William_Wakeman]

I still have not clean the pipe because it has not built up creosote, sounds like you use your stove more than I do. You may have to keep yours hotter or change your wood which may be the reason why you have build up ?.

[@mantislake4141]

I know that this takes smaller diameter pipe than traditional woodstoves but I've never heard of having to sweep every 2 weeks!

[@tpainless2455]

Scotch pad with charcoal from the fire and brake clean or alchohol to clean off

[@gunner-]

Try stove cleaner to clean glass like easy off oven cleaner

[@JK-ll9bf]

That is awesome!

[@amonamaria2000]

I use a little oven cleaner four mine.

[@srminter1]

I've used 000 steel wool to clean stove glass. It works fairly well.

[@johnnyreb8030]

choke the fire till it slowly licks and get more burn time

[@jerryseeley3110]

Ash with a wet cloth clean glass window on stoves

[@rustybrown1835]

I love it looks like a good place to hide from the wife.

[@susanapol382]

From the husband too....😂😂😂😂😂

[@DarrylBass]

wives have a knack for "fining" so there's no hiding anything or anyone from them.

[@soulerGATE]

Lol if you want to clean you glass is so ezzzz, use ash from burning woods,take paper and water and ash and tell me if this works,,😋😚

[@JeffreyHarrington]

Are you still satisfied?

[@William_Wakeman]

Very Satisfied.

[@ronaldbrown5796]

burn wood more seasoned.
