St. Croix Corn Burning Stove
Steve Byler, Belleville, Penn.: "It's by far the best investment I've made in years," reports Steve about his 2005 St. Croix corn burning stove (Even Temp, Waco, Neb.; info@eventempinc.com; www. eventem pinc.com). "I live in an old, leaky, uninsulated brick house. When I saw how high oil prices were going to be last year, I only bought half the oil I would normally need for the year and then bought this stove. As it turned out, I was able to reduce my oil consumption by 67 percent so this stove paid for itself in just one winter. I'm amazed at how clean and efficient it works. I had been supplementing my oil heat with a wood/coal stove, which was a lot of work. I had to dump a huge ash pan every morning, bag up coal every chance I could get at the local feed mill, and cut wood. I just don't have time for that. I'm a grain farmer so I can get shelled corn any time I need it. I used 196 bushels of corn last winter. I'd recommend this stove to anyone."
