Even with the highly efficient flame your Countryside stove will produce, the solid fuels used will produce ash. This ash will have to be cleaned out of the stove from time to time. The cleaning procedure will be discussed later in this manual. You can minimize the amount of cleaning required and maximize the ef

There are many varieties of corn grown around the world. Each variety has unique characteristics including the shape and size of the kernel.

Therefore, purchasing corn from the same source will help achieve a more consistent
