Burning 1 split at a time slight under fire air and same for over fire air.adding a 3# scoop every 3rd split 4-5 hours probably less than 12# of coalnmixed in with wood ash but there if I need it to go ( under 250* has never happened with wood before without smoldering ) never thought I’d burn both but for these temps this is working great!! Waterford’s were a great design with a few flaws for North American coal duty , they were more for 6-12hr burns as opposed to 24-7)
