Hot take 🔥
Is cedar mandatory for a sauna?

Short answer: No.

Long answer:
Cedar is popular for a reason — it smells great, resists rot, and handles moisture well. But it’s not the gold standard everywhere.

In traditional Finnish saunas, you’ll often see:
• Spruce
• Pine
• Aspen

Why?
Because a good sauna is about design, heat, and airflow — not just the wood species.

In fact:

* Some people don’t like cedar’s strong smell
* It’s more expensive
* Other woods perform just as well when built correctly

What actually matters:
✔ Proper ventilation
✔ Heater sizing & placement
✔ Bench design (get up into the löyly)
✔ Solid construction

Cedar is great.
But it’s a preference — not a requirement.

Build it right, and almost any quality softwood can give you a killer sauna.

We’re closing in on 500 followers, and when we hit it… 🎁 GIVEAWAY TIME 🎁

🎄 472 followers and FULLY BOOKED for Christmas! 🎄

We just want to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who has supported Bastu Sauna Co. so far. Your enthusiasm for sauna culture, craftsmanship, and a little humor has been incredible—and because of you, we’re officially booked solid for the Christmas season.

We’ve also shipped our first tins of Bastu Bench Butter from our Etsy shop, which is a big milestone for us. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you can find it here:
👉 https://bastuinnovations.etsy.com

Our Etsy store is all about spreading sauna culture—from handcrafted sauna treatments and aromatherapy drops to apparel that celebrates the sauna lifestyle. We’ve even got a humor section with graphic tees, and new designs are being added regularly.

For apparel, we partner with Printful, a print-on-demand company that handles the inventory, production, and shipping. That lets us focus on creating great designs without overcomplicating things. 👕
That said… keep an eye out for limited-edition items that we’ll make locally and handle start-to-finish ourselves—those will be special releases only.

Thanks again for being part of this journey and helping Bastu grow. More good things (and more löyly) coming soon. 🔥
