I use one every day in the garage. That is where all of the eggs are stored so I have to keep it warm enough.
I open the flue and the vent to start with. I also put a few rolled up newspapers in it to heat up the flue and get it to draw quick. I close the door when there is a good enough draw that the fire will pull hard when it is closed. I go do some chores and can smell when it is time to close the damper - the smoke smells hot. Then I close the damper down but leave the vent wide open for about an hour or so. Then the vent gets closed down pretty good so that it will burn for about 4 hours loaded. There are usually enough coals left to start another fire for 24 hours.
It isn't the most efficient stove but they are just eggs. It does a good job and keeps that old carriage house about 75 no matter the weather.
