    You know what would be interesting? I would've liked to see what ash hoover would you recommend. If you can review some of them, that would be awesome!

    I would be interested to know your thoughts on glass cleaning in this context. I was led to believe separately that cleaning the glass incorrectly could damage the surface and also that not cleaning it and leaving the fly ash and pale powdery deposits that seem to form over several fires will somehow make the glass uncleanable top the same degree.
    I weas never sure of the best approach to resort to cleaning the inside glass about once every couple of weeks or longer. Ashamedly, I have to admit I do have a couple of areas of light hazing in the glass at the corners, nothing like as bad as the demonstration piece in this video though.

      The ash isn’t a problem, but moisture is. I do have another glass cleaning video coming out, but it’s all about Dry Wipers. This is the best solution

    Is it possible to prolong the life of the glass by swapping it round the other side? Or would this make no difference. 🔥

      It’s the moisture that ruins it. The glass should last forever until you bump and break it, or acid crazes it. It’s more thing that happens rather than a slow deterioration.

      Check out the Di Lusso R4. I think it's that one. The channel has a review of that stove.

      It’s a Di Lusso, but the R5 (coming soon on a review) 👍

      Congrats. I’ve seen it done well, so let’s hope it’s awesome. Always worth planning ahead to get a tip top result, but as long as you’re happy with the plans, fantastic! 👌

    Your vocals seem to be panned to the right to my ears, which makes the piano compete for volume. Otherwise a really useful video!
