Description
🔗 At our age, 65°F indoors can already be dangerous. What doctors say, and how to heat for less anyway: https://larshalvorsen.com
I burned the worst wood of my life for one winter because I trusted a number on a screen instead of my own hands. A moisture meter guesses at a lab result, and outdoors, in the cold, pressed into bark instead of a fresh face, it guesses low. There is a test with dish soap that catches what the meter misses, and a reason it fails on certain species that almost nobody tells you. I will also show you the one free method I trust more than any tool I have ever owned, and what a hundred and eighty gallons of water sitting in your woodpile is actually costing you this winter.
If this is the sort of thing you want more of, the subscribe button is down there. I will not ask twice.
