CHANGING STOVES IN A CABIN

  • I have a lot of work to do at my new cabin. The old stove is out and the new stove is in. But I realize that my chimney is very dangerous. Sparks are flying all over the place. This is the beginning of a long process. I want this cabin to be my dream place, so I am picking away at it and slowly making it my own. I take care of the chimney issue. I also fish and make bread and cook bologna.

      Stove pipe should always be installed with the "male-end-down". Installing the pipe male-end-down allows creosote drippings to go back down into your stove instead of running down your pipe onto the stove or floor.

    Something you might want to consider once you have things figured out at the cabin is to eventually build a small shed-type building for the generators, it doesn’t have to be very big….roughly the same size as the box they are in now.
    The shed will at least get them higher off the ground and have a door so it can be locked somehow to keep critters out.

    Making bread: First know regular flour will only work okay. Bread flour is best. Secondly, let the bread rise for at least a half hour after shaping. Third. Do not cover your bread when baking. Other then that, you did everything right! Loved the video.

      @nancysblessednest 8 місяців тому +1

      Also when baking in cast iron, I always preheat the pot/pan first. Just put the pot in the oven while you are preheating. That takes a good amount of time, then it will back fast. I toss the dough on a piece of parchment paper then put the whole thing into the preheated pan, I keep the lid on my Dutch oven for the first 30 minutes or so then take it off til finished

      @@ppodoentbeast I agree. Yeast dough needs air for the yeast to perform its best. Letting it rise in a covered bowl until double, then shaping it, and giving it another 30 minutes to rise again before putting it into the PREHEATED Dutch oven (lid on for 30 minutes, then off until finished) will give the best results.

    That old stove looked pretty nice Jay.
    The thing you "didn't know what it was" was an ash relief/removal grate to let expelled ash have a place to go, instead of smothering the fire's coals my friend.
    Rookie mistake.

    Great vid Jay. Hope you solved the issue with the stove pipes. I know the seam on the pipe creates a flat spot. I've always offset the seams or didn't align them. That has worked for me in my tent. Double wall stove pipe is probably the best way to go, but of course, it comes at a cost!! It is safer, though! Thanks of the video!

    You may have figured out your bread stuff by now, but for others who may have stumbled on this video late.. Bread needs room to rise and by squishing the air out of the bag you were effectively punching it down. It might also be a bit cold there, but a trick is to put it over the pilot lights on the range to warm it just enough. Try preheating your dutch oven either on the woodstove to save propane, or on the range, or in the oven while it's heating up if that's not a concern. It was probably the effort of getting that cast iron to baking temperature that slowed down the baking time. Definitely get a simple oven thermometer. Hope this helps somebody!

      Don’t be bitter just because I know the proper way to install a chimney pipe. No you don’t want sparks coming out from pipe but what I stated is the correct way to install chimney pipe. The seams of the pipes shouldn’t line up and 3 screws should always be installed in each joint. That will eliminate the open gaps and not allow sparks to escape.
