I just bought some almond firewood, split logs, 16" long. I chose it because the supplier said it was the longest-burning wood they sold, but it seems to burn with very little flame or heat. It just kind of smolders and disintigrates slowly. Do I need a softer wood to burn WITH it? Is there a trick to getting a good fire going using almond? Before this I was burning pine, oak and scrap lumber and they all burned better and gave more heat. I'd like a nice-looking fire, of course, but my main concern is home heating... I've just moved to a cabin in Mt. Baldy, CA. I'd appreciate advice both about this wood and about a good wood for home heating in the future. I didn't buy a lot (1/16 cord) so I wouldn't mind buying another wood to burn along with it if that'll do the trick and give me a nice fire.

Burning Almond is as good as Oak......Your Almond must be too wet to burn. If it was just cut I would not burn til next year. You have to let it dry completely before you burn it....
If you go to the market and see those pre packaged firewood,look at how dry they are..........

Eating almonds may help maintain or even lose weight. A high-fat food that's good for your health? That's not an oxymoron, its almonds. Almonds are high in monounsaturated fats, the same type of health-promoting fats as are found in olive oil, which have been associated with reduced risk of heart disease.

You should use a flame to burn the wood...
dont buy wood. buy an old beat up truck for a couple hundred bucks. drive through the woods and look for fallen and dead lookin trees. cut them down, chop them up. its free. and it burns great.
dotn bee so technical, its wood, it burns, fire gets hot.
thats pretty much it, dont buy pretreated wood like you did.
