 ### Logs
 
+The log level is configured in `settings.$NODE_ENV.json` via `log.level`
+(default `info`). The `LOG_LEVEL` environment variable overrides it, which is
+handy for quiet test runs:
+
+    LOG_LEVEL=error npm test
+
+Valid levels: `debug`, `info`, `warn`, `error`, and `silent` (or `off`) to
+disable logging entirely. Messages below the active level are neither printed
+nor written to `log.log`.
+
 To prevent logs from growing too big the file `$INSTALLDIR/log.log` should be included into a logrotation job.
 
 Furthermore `pm2` also does some logging.
