Eco-fuel Logs

'Fuel Britannia' Straw logs

When I saw Straw Dogs* I was terrified, but this straw has just been slightly torrified to turn it in to a handy log. Straw is the by-product of crops grown to produce wheat. As an annual crop it produces a very interesting fuel that has a lot of credibility in terms of sustainability and the food versus fuel debate. It also answers a lot of questions relating to the carbon cycle. Burning it is interesting and impressive, it gives good heat, equivelent to kiln dried logs and gives a good amount of blue/green tinged flame from mineral uptake whilst growing and has a long after-glow once the flames die down. I would expect to get 1-5 hours burn time depending on flue and stove conditions. It has good gasification, nicely volatile smoke. If you have a modern stove with good preheated secondary or terciary air supply you should get a regular 'Aurora Borealis' in the back of your stove.
