    It wasn't too cold that it froze nor too warm that it spoiled and was all citrus. I should have a fairly long slot to enjoy the grapefruit damm statins and grapefruit juice are problematic at least I was given the green light to enjoy a grapefruit in the evening.

    Sooo, was talking with my neighbor that took a ton of the 802's. She said she didnt like them because the pellets stuck to the hopper and the stove would always go out every night with plenty of pellets left and wake up to a cold house. They have either a P38 or P43. Told her that they need to rub the hopper down with graphite or something. Hopefully they take the advice but maybe they wont as they havnt had issues with any other pellets. Who knows, maybe they will.

    Oh well, I should have kept all 4 ton because for me they are a top tier pellet!! I used graphite on my hopper 8 years ago after reading posts from the old site and havnt had a problem......ever. Sprayed my honeys XXV several years ago when she was having the issue, although not as bad as my neighbor was having.

    I've never had that issue with either stove. I guess at times a few pellets stick, but not enough to make a difference. If either stove goes out for lack of pellets it's because I forgot to throw any in the hopper.

    Woke up at 2 am to the sound of snow sliding off the roof. I didn't know whether to be :thumbs: or to be :mad:for waking me up. Not all of it of course, not even all of it in the section that slid, but it's a start. there will be quite the mess to shovel when I get home tonight.

    Yeah, and no one will shovel a standing seam roof - no footing. Can't say as I blame them though.

    I just saw that Will had the issue with AWF and he has the same or similar stove. Wonder if it is related to the angle of the hopper bottom on the smaller stove. The XXV hasnt had any issues since lubing the metal but the P68 hasnt had the issue.

    Makes sense when you think about it.

    Front of the house had some melting yesterday and will be fine. Garage had a little as well. Back of the house is what it is as I cant get anything off with a rake.

    If I had today off I would probably take some off the garage while taking advantage of the warm weather outside. But I am not off and it should be just fine as well.

    Welp it is just a bit warmer today it may get up to 47 might get rid of some the snow, doing the wharsh at the moment we are supposed to get 0.5 inches of rain not anywhere enough to worry about not even close to what the roof can or has held.

    37ºF when I started the buggy this AM. Didn't need to start it. But force of habit!! Temp dropped to 32ºF in the valley and there were a few slick spots.

    Forecast says rain. Just hope it is slow and steady. No place for it to go up on the hill!!
