So I recently purchased a Warm Morning 120 intended to heat the whole house from the basement, I also have a Coal Chubby upstairs in my house. Typically I burn Nut size Coal as that's what is specified for the Chubby. Is there an advantage to stove coal in the larger stove? Or should I stick with Nut Coal for both?

Right now I'm burning Sherman Coal from C&T in Baldwinville MA and it's fantastic. Burn times are good and it burns to a fine ash. I've tried Reading and Kimmel's and haven't been impressed.
