Coal vs coke debate finally settled for me
Old timer at the guild meeting showed me his forge running straight coke. Said he burns 30% less fuel per hour. Now I'm ditching the bagged coal I've been using for 5 years.

30% less fuel per hour is a huge number. I've been burning bagged coal for about three years now and I go through it pretty fast. The smoke and clinker build up is the worst part for me. That much savings would pay for a new fuel setup in no time.

Did you ever look into the anthracite vs bituminous coal breakdown? I heard that coke burns way cleaner because most of the impurities are already cooked out during the coking process... makes sense you'd get less clinker.
