### Learn Permaculture: Apply Self Regulation and Accept Feedback
While last winter the rocket mass heater was the primary source of heat, this winter miners are doing the heavy lifting. Basically, with two glamping style rentals at the homestead last summer, the amount of firewood sales drastically increased to the point where wood stacked for winter heating was getting sold to guests. Then came the realization, the value of the firewood was greater sold to guests than it was used to heat the house, when taking Bitcoin mining into consideration. What started off as reluctance to sell the winter heat source turned into finding ways to sell more. If all the firewood was sold the there would be more than enough money to pay for the electricity to heat the house with miners. The trade off is resilience, if the power goes out, having some wood for heat will come in handy. So the feedback loop was to counterintuitively sell as much winter heating wood to guests as possible and the self regulation was to hold enough back to have a back up source of heat if the power goes out, miners break, ect. The rocket mass heater is one of the most effective systems built on the homestead check out how it was used last season below. I expect this year to be an anomaly, and go back to mostly wood heat next winter.
