冬の南阿蘇は寒い。特に夜は熊本市内より５℃程度は低いと思います。
南阿蘇のＯGA亭では、エアコンとガスストーブを用意していますが、冬は薪ストーブがおすすめです。遠赤外線でとても体が温まります。室内を十分温めておくと、翌朝もぬくもりが残っています。お時間があれば２泊以上でゆっくり薪ストーブをお楽しみ下さい。絵本やカルタなどもご用意しております。
When using the woodstove, be sure to
apply at the time of reservation, read the instructions below, check the video,
and use it with caution.
the wood stove use fire, so be careful how you handle it. ・ Do not use anything other than designated fuel (firewood/charge).
・ Make the flow of air in the stove so
that fuel burns well. Keep the combustion temperature at 200°C. It will not get too hot. Note that
if it falls below 100°C, so it will be easier
for soot to come out. Do not fly fire powder or ash out of the stove. Secure
the lid of the stove.
・Be careful not to touch the stove, the
fence around it, or the chimney because it will be hot.
【Materials】
・Lighters for igniting
・Igniter
・ Firewood set (firewood and ignition agent and material 500 yen per bunch for about 3 hours)
* The firewood set for customers is
set on the designated shelf on the left side of the entrance. Please put the
price of the material used in the price box in the room. Never use any other
wood.
【Period of use】
Winter only (scheduled from November to April)
【How to use】
Prepare fuel.
Place fuel in the stove to make it easier for the fire to burn from the
igniting end material to the large firewood. When igniting, turn off the
kitchen ventilation fan so that smoke and soot do not leak into the room.
place a bag of igniters between
firewood
line firewood with igniting end
materials
★ never burn anything you bring in
other than the designated one. Doing so may cause strange odor or incomplete
combustion. Plastics, etc. are dangerous because the stove may fail or toxic
gases may be generated.
To make the oxygen enter the stove well, open the left and right valve handles in the photo, Pull the knob under it toward you. When burning, leave the lower knob pulled.
If the fire is bad, open the door a little, and tighten the door firmly when
the fire is sure to start (about 10 minutes after the fire).
When it burns to a large material, a large material is added little by little.
Since the flow of air changes due to burning, try moving the material when
the fire weakens.
* The wood
stove does not warm up immediately, so please use an air conditioner or a gas
stove until then (about 1 hour).
Keep the stove temperature at around 200°C.
To keep the stove temperature at
200°C, adjust the flame with a damper. When
it is above 150°C, the angle of the damper is adjusted
to 45 degrees. In addition, the temperature lowers when the left and right
handles of the door are occupied.
Before going to bed, you can increase the combustion time by adjusting the air hole and keeping the firepower weak.
When it falls below 100 °C, the soot tends to
accumulate in the chimney, so be careful not to go too low or too high.
When extinguishing fires, close all air holes so that
oxygen does not enter, and extinguish them naturally. Close the left and right valves and push in the knobs
under them. Never water or do it.
If possible, if the fuel firewood is completely
burned and extinguished, soot do not come out.
Wait until the fire is out and the
temperature is lowered. (20 minutes or more) Be careful not to accumulate too
much in the saucer in the stove.
If you burn firewood for 4-5 hours,
the ashes will be filled with saucers, so it is better to completely burn the
firewood on the stove once as a ventilation, and discard the ashes after the
fire is extinguished. (the next morning, etc.)
The fire is completely extinguished,
and the ash that the temperature has lowered is discarded to the left of the camellia
tree on the right side of the entrance, in a predetermined dump.
When you leave the room, Please close the valves,etc.,completely extinguish the fire, and leave the ash without throwing it away. The stuff will clean it up later.

南阿蘇に冬がやってきました。四季を通じて南阿蘇には楽しみがあるのですが、冬は温泉、地元でとれる食材、そして亭の薪ストーブが楽しみです。
亭がある場所は標高約400メートルで、熊本市内との温度差は大きい時は４度以上あります。特に冬季は雪が１０センチ以上積もる日も数年に一度ぐらいあり、車でお越しの場合には注意が必要です。天気予報で滞在期間に大雪の情報があれば、チェーン規制がある場合もあるので、スタッドレスタイヤを装着するかチェーンを持参ください。レンタカーを使用する場合は早めにお店に相談ください。スタッドレスタイヤ装着車は数に限りがある場合があります。私は今までノーマルタイヤのみでしたが、今シーズンにチェーン（ゴム製/駆動輪２本用約2万円）を購入しました。
気温も夜間は氷点下になる日があります。暖房器具は、薪ストーブ、ガスストーブ、エアコンがあります。特に薪ストーブは新築時から設置しており、火を眺めながら夜をくつろぐ過ごし方はお薦めです。火を直接扱うので取り扱いには注意が必要です。着火するのにも要領が要ります。使用ご希望の場合は、宿泊予約後にホストへ必ず事前申し込みを行ってください。取り扱い方法の説明や動画もこのブログに掲載しておりますのでご参照ください。外気は寒いですが、部屋の扉を閉めたり、2階の壁掛け扇風機を使用して暖気を1階に下ろすなどすれば室内で暖かく過ごすことができます。
冬の亭は、できれば連泊して、薪ストーブを囲んで話をしたり、本を読んだり、部屋でゆっくり過ごしていただくのがお薦めです。地元で冬野菜を購入して鍋をつついたり、温泉を巡ったり、冬の阿蘇を楽しんでいただきたいと思います。
