I burn what ever is available and dry. I usually use the pine when starting the fire and while I'm home and up because it burns faster and require more loading. When I go out or go out for a while or to bed I load it with hard wood. It will last much longer so less reloading. I try to burn around 500 to 600 degrees which usually gives a pretty clean burn.
I just demoed my bathroom so I have a lot of dry pine studs to burn, nails and all.
