We investigate maximal free sequences in the Boolean algebra P(ω) / fin , as defined by Monk (Comment Math Univ Carol 52(4):593–610, 2011). We provide some information on the general structure of these objects and we are particularly interested in the minimal cardinality of a free sequence, a cardinal characteristic of the continuum denoted f. Answering a question of Monk, we demonstrate the consistency of ω 1 = i= f< u= ω 2 . In fact, this consistency is demonstrated in the model of Shelah for i< u (Shelah in Arch Math Log 31(6):433–443, 1992). Our paper provides a streamlined and mostly self contained presentation of this construction.
