Elm for me. The old dead trees are harder to find now. Burns beautifully for a long time.

Wonder why the Scandinavians plant so much Silver Birch? 🤔

Ash should NEVER be burnt wet in any stove. It is way too wet. Moisture should be under 20%. Apart from a good, airy, wood store, the best investment is a moisture meter and used to test the middle of a freshly split log. Most merchants test from the end which gives a false reading so they can sell the logs. I split all my oak and ash down to 1" thick and it's dry in a year. If you leave it 4" thick it will take 4 years to be dry enough. NEVER used treated pallets etc because they are loaded with dangerous chemicals. Great videos and reviews.

Ash, with an occasional dried blackthorn log (for the smell).

Best I've had is hormbeam. Cherry, if you can get it, burns very hot. Birch is easy to burn but goes a but too quick. Ash is probably the benchmark. I don't like oak - it only goes well on an already hot fire - and alder is just awful.
