Does maple make for good firewood? I can get a load for 50 bucksAnywhere between fair and excellent, depending on the species.
Typical soft maples are silver maple and red maple. Silver maple is
fair,
at
best, for firewood; red maple is mediocre to good. The hard maples
(sugar
maple and black maple) make excellent firewood.
Dear Doug:
Send me all of your soft maple.
Thank you.
silver isn't much better than tulip poplar as firewood.
rated as very soft maple. If you want to maximize heat output per load of
wood, go for sugar maple, but the others still produce heat, and if it is
this time of the year you don't want a lot all at once, or the fire to last
all night, they are still good.
