Yea, sounded like the guy driving the ice cream truck. With fossil fuel down, I'm betting a glut. They all seem to go hand in hand. You have to have a shortage in one in order to have a shortage in the other. The only guys who are safe are the cordwood burners. They know the status of their heating cost 3 years out and are generally in complete control.
That and the other saying you posted "chit or get off the pot" Darn, but if those aren't some of the same ones I was told over and over Had nothing to do with a pot, but you knew the meaning. Will, where were you raised?
I'm seeing pellets everywhere right now. Mostly average pellets like MWP, Maine Choice, and Crabbe. Not going to see the good ones sitting in a grocery store or big box, but the lower tier are abundant. The pellet plants must have had a busy summer.
In the past, the big boxes around here have carried PTL's (lignetics), Greene Team, Stove Chow, Fireside Ultra's, Greenways, and a couple others I can't remember the names, but they were all good heaters in my stove, and were WAY cheaper. But with the $$ these days, you might see only crap. Lowes here already has the nasty North American's out, but HD across the street has a chit-load of Chow.
Steve, can you post the results from a recent twin ports test? The easyblaze website shows "dry basis" BTU values. I would like to see the "as received" numbers.
Didn't need to send one sooner we started up the mills in July as we were developing our non fuel non seasonal wood products since April.
