The best way to make a fire burn hotter is to use the hottest burning logs that you can. Oak, Ash and Black Locust burn very hot. Feed them into the fire along with fast burning wood such as Maple to keep the fire raging. If you do not burn a fast burning wood with the Oak and Ash, they will burn very hot, but very slowly. The object is to make as many red hot coals from the Oak and Ash at the base of the fire as possible. That is where the heat from your fire will come from and the more coals the hotter the fire will feel.

To effectively burn wet firewood, it is important to first allow the wood to dry out as much as possible. This can be done by storing the wood in a dry place for an extended period of time.

It may also be helpful to use a fire starter or accelerant to aid in igniting the wet wood.
