    Notice the UPC suffix 711039 matches the Dry Creek, Pure Fire? Or am I late?

    No jtakeman , you're correct. I punched in the UPC code & Dry Creek came up also. So those Blackstones may not be half bad.

    Blackstone and Still river are the same pellet, Made in Eastford CT by the pallet manufacturer. There is no relationship to Dry Creek, according to the marketing firm that reps them. Still river is to be sold to multiple location customers (Aubuchon Hardware, Benny's). and Blackstone to pellet dealers.

    How are your black stone pellets? So far I've had to pre screen my bags to remove excess fines.

    Only have a hundred pounds through so far. Cleaner burning , less fines and a bit more BTU value than Dry Creek. I'm committed to running the full ton, so I'll update as the winter progresses, but I am starting to use my wood furnace so my pellet consumption will not increase greatly as it gets colder. It's going to take a while !
