Can you tell dry and damp wood from each other by the sound of clicking two logs together?
Dry wood makes a high, hard sound, but the sound of damp wood is softer.
It is almost like meditation to watch the flames dancing in the fireplace. A coffee pot, blackened by smoke in the fire, looks pretty and picturesque.
In this day and age of trendy speciality coffees, traditional Finnish coffee brewed in the pot has become a rarity, and fire-brewed kettle coffee is a rare speciality, linking us to the chain of a couple of hundred years of Finnish coffee heritage.
