Bigger is not always better but certainly better for tanks.
Build a solar hot water tank for that heated water and enjoy it the next morning too.
It s basically a large extremely well insulated storage tank of water that you heat via a back boiler on your wood stove or via solar hot water panels that can feed radiators or underfloor heating any time you like.
If you size your solar hot water also known as thermal storage tank correctly you can easily store the heated water overnight and it will be plenty hot enough to provide comfortable showers or clothes laundering water.
The answer is a thermal store.
