Have we ever looked at the question of how to design a stove to burn wood that is higher in moisture? It would seem that this is very important practical issue, and that a stove that could burn wet wood would be very popular. What makes a stove burn wet wood well or poorly? The only time I remember someone saying something about this was Crispin, who I believe said recently that preheating the primary air makes it possible to burn wetter wood. This would be easy with a batch stove, harder with continuous feed. Other than that, I can think of a couple things that might help burn wetter wood.
