How to Choose the Best Firewood for Your Needs
Selecting the right firewood is essential for a warm and efficient fire. But with so many options available, how do you know which type of wood is best for your needs? Here's a guide to help you make an informed choice.
1. Understand Your Firewood Needs
Before you start selecting firewood, consider how you'll be using it:
- Heating your home: You'll need dense, long-burning woods.
- Outdoor fire pits: Choose wood that burns brightly and produces less smoke.
- Cooking: Opt for wood that imparts a pleasant flavor to food.
2. The Importance of Seasoned Wood
Freshly cut wood, or "green" wood, contains a lot of moisture, making it difficult to burn. Seasoned wood has been dried for at least six months, reducing its moisture content and making it more efficient and easier to ignite.
3. Density Matters
Dense hardwoods generally burn longer and produce more heat. These are ideal for heating purposes.
4. Redgum: A Top Choice
One of the best options for firewood is Redgum. Here's why:
- High Density: Redgum is a dense hardwood, meaning it burns longer and produces more heat.
- Low Smoke: It emits less smoke compared to softer woods, making it a cleaner option for indoor use.
- Great for Cooking: Redgum imparts a mild, pleasant flavor to food, making it perfect for BBQs and smoking.
- Seasoned Well: Redgum seasons well and retains its burning efficiency when properly dried.
6. How to Store Firewood
Proper storage is crucial to ensure your firewood remains dry and ready to use:
- Off the Ground: Elevate your woodpile to prevent moisture absorption from the ground.
- Covered but Ventilated: Use a tarp or a shed to protect your wood from rain while allowing airflow to keep it dry.
- Stacking: Stack wood in a criss-cross pattern to promote air circulation.
Choosing the best firewood involves understanding your specific needs and considering factors like wood density, seasoning, and storage. Redgum stands out as an excellent option due to its high heat output, low smoke production, and versatility.
By following these guidelines, you'll ensure a warm and efficient fire, whether you're heating your home, enjoying an outdoor fire pit, or cooking a delicious meal.

Should You Buy Kindling?
Absolutely! Quality kindling is essential for starting your fire. It maintains the fire's energy, helping to ignite and burn medium-sized wood, which then sets your larger logs ablaze. Without kindling, your fire won't heat up quickly enough to burn larger logs effectively.
Our Recommendation: Pick up 1-2 bags of kindling with every firewood order.
How to Set Your Kindling
- Prepare the Base: Scrunch up some newspaper or use fire lighters and place them in your fireplace.
- Add Twigs: Place three handfuls of small twigs on top of the newspaper or fire lighters.
- Layer the Kindling: Arrange several pieces of kindling over the twigs.
- Position Small Logs: Add one or two smaller logs, standing them against the kindling in a pyramid shape.
By following these steps, you'll effortlessly start your fire in just minutes, every time.
