    They are a good pellet. A tick below Lacrete, if you've burned them.

    I liked them for the heat but I'm not paying attention to the ashes so my recommendations is somewhat 1/2 good and muddied with beer:whistle:

    Jay, I will post the UPC code on the Bionorth pellets later. I'll be getting ready to try them soon as the weather dips again. The manufacturer called the other day to see on the results of their pellet samples. That's a good sign on the customer feedback!

    Thanks Sub, I have burned La Crete but the ones I had were chit as they were beat and thought I might have grabbed half a dozen bags of cracked corn instead of what I paid for premium pellets. Good to know for the future.

    Another 40 bags of Logek-ê picked up. Furnace just started so won't be long on the tests of Bionorth pellets but I got quite a busy week ahead of me and will try to squeeze it in.

    Bionorth softwood 137*F not very good even playing with the air. Disappointed.
    Will be a couple days before I get around to the Bionorth blended pellets.

    I think what's wrong is they're using old white pine which has been sitting around in the elements. I will get back to them as soon the other test is done.

    ivanhoe one of the local shops around here just started advertising Logik-E softwood pellets. Have you seen or heard of them up your way? I checked Logik-E's own website and they are not mentioned. Only the traditional hardwood offering is listed. Maybe this is some new trial product? Just curious.

    Bionorth blend got a high of 145*F
    Shoulder pellets at best.
    Picked up some McFeeters swd/hwd, regular LG's and the Granulco hwd to try later.
    Tomorrow morning maybe.
