What is Kiln Dried Firewood?

Kiln-dried firewood is firewood that has been processed in a special kiln to remove moisture content. By heating the wood to temperatures above 270°F, we reduce moisture levels to below 20%, ensuring a clean, efficient burn. This process guarantees that your firewood will be easier to light, burn hotter, and produce less smoke compared to traditional air-dried firewood.

What does Kiln dried firewood mean?

Firewood is a huge deal in southeastern-Wisconsin and we know it! That is why we have decided to sell only kiln dried firewood. All of our Wisconsin firewood is loaded up into metal baskets and then placed into our firewood kiln which is then heated at over 200+ degrees, with all that heat (and some other science of the kiln is involved) our wood is on it's way to being dry!

Our kiln is running 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365 days out of the year. Around every 72 hours we check the current batch of firewood in the kiln and check if the moisture content of the logs are 15%, if so we pull out the firewood and it is then Best Burn Firewood quality and ready to be sold!

Why Kiln dried Firewood is better than Air Dried firewood

The reason we have decided to kiln dry our firewood is because all firewood needs to sit for at least 9-12 months at minimum before soaking wet on the inside causing your fire to actually go out. Firewood at minimum should be below 20% moisture before you attempt to burn it, that requires a good 12 months to even allow to to get near that moisture level. Most firewood companies and tree/landscaping companies around here split wood one month, and then will sell it to you the next month because they don't want to wait a year to sell it at a proper moisture level, which sucks for the customer!

It also does not help with Wisconsin's tough winters, you only have a couple months out of the year to allow yourself quality time for your wood to naturally air dry! This is horrible news for you the customer, and that is why we kiln dry our firewood and can do the seasoning process in 3-4 days! We get our moisture content down to below 15% which is impossible to achieve by air drying your firewood.

I buy firewood for our indoor fireplace here every year. Good prices for all amounts of wood and the half face cord of oak lasts my wife and I the entire winter, usually with some left for the next one. The customer service is very quick and friendly and scheduling always goes smooth. The guys that drop it off are nice and clean with the delivery, even when you’re not around. Would highly recommend and will be a customer for years to come!

Best Burn Firewood is really the best! They have a variety of woods to choose from and information about the different types. They have wonderful office staff to help with your order as well as online scheduling options. The delivery people do a wonderful job with delivery and stacking. They get five stars!

4th year we've purchased from Best Burn Firewood and we've been completely satisfied. The wood is delivered on time based on our delivery instructions and the delivery driver is courteous, offers to help and thanks us for supporting their business. We use the wood for our fireplace and because the wood is kiln dried, it starts quickly and burns efficiently. We will continue to purchase our firewood from Best Burn Firewood.

My very first order of firewood from Best Burn Firewood was delivered yesterday. The entire process including: immediate answers to my product questions, an easy-to-use website, and on-time delivery, was nothing short of excellent. I will definitely be using this company for all future orders. Thank you Best Burn!

This is truly the best! Beautiful website that explains everything and the ability to chat or call the office and speak to Brady or Kate. We bought a half cord of mixed hardwoods- delivered on time - stacked perfectly. We are so satisfied and pleased with our experience. We highly recommend this company!
