Yes will do when i get a chance its going to be a little while. sorry Now after letting it run wide open and making as many adjustments trying everything it seems to want to run at the same temperature 400* max. Informal not exactly scientific but what i have been using as its what I have. I will not be throwing any hardwoods in there for a while as it barely burned through any of these Platinum pellets(amazing and great thing !) and I am not digging out the hopper again With that said I will not be selling these either as I am amazed at how clean they are burning and will be perfect for warmer weather and are fine even for colder weather . Plus they just smell damm nice ! and are top quality . I will find a more refined way of reducing the pellet size if I really have to(made a gawd awful mess of my back porch last night)only time will tell .Pulled the auger last night did some serious cleaning but nothing was really that bad but it seems to be loading the modified pellets just fine, will have to dump some from a new bag that has not been modified. In comparison for temps here are what other pellets were burning MWP = 450* GS = 475* Lacretes = 450-470* FSU = 500* Geneva's 550*+ I know it sounds crazy and it might be something that has changed in my stove and I have tried every setting like a mad scientist saw the wife walk by with the *You have issues head shake* too many times last night . Fun stuff Will post some pics when i get a chance .
Luney when you post a picture of those Vandys, put them next to some Genevas of FSUs for perspective so we can see the difference.
There's a lot of information here but three things . I tried LGs and even though they looked just like LaCrete's did not put out much heat . My stove was burning dirty and not very efficient until I realized I had bured maybe 2 tons and needed to get deeper into the exhaust blower and clean the stove pipe , now I can't believe how clean it's burning.
X2! Same here, GS's did fine in the warmth. Just lacking a touch to handle the sub 30 temps. NO's have been great until the single's hit. Then its Hamers to keep the stove abuse to a minimum.
No Geneva's left so pictured from top to bottom are Vandy's Lacrete's and FSU. Russel I hear you and with my OCD i clean this stove too much and always do comparison after a good cleaning including everything exhaust,hopper,auger,pull the baffles ect.... Now onto the back Porch Ack !*Note to Self* Do not attempt what seem like bright ideas while half in the Bag !
sorry to hear that. they burned good for me,just didnt like the auger. you can bring em back if you like.
Ahh Hell No Skeeter woke up this morning and had barely burned any, very happy with them just have to figure a few things out and will not part with them now and thank you kindly for them ! I will be back for the rest of them at some point if you don't sell them before then. They are burning steady and incredibly clean like nothing I have experienced yet actually amazingly so . Look forward to coming back out and thanks again !
So I just cleaned the stove after 4 bags of Cubex the ash was very minimal and very easy to vac off the glass . The heat was 430 center glass and 315 from vents . The only difference I noticed compared to EZB is the ash clinged to the fire pot but was very easy to just brush off , so here's some pics and I'll let you guys be the judge .
4 bags?????? so i just cleaned the stove after 27 odd bags of Blazers. set up with a hopper full of MWP softwood. i'm sure it won't surpass a DF, but still will be a good comparison these pellets are a little on the short side, same as others have noted, but the Harman will do it's thing. had grandson Landon for an overnight last night and today so mom and dad could unpack in their new house. 5 months old tomorrow. everything appears normal in the development dept. he's a real cutie - the girls are gonna chase him!
I was just doing a comparison between my softwoods and Cubex which I bought 4 bags of for a test of heat output and ash build up .
It's been awhile, but the ash looks the same / it looks like a clean hot burn in the stove there Russell.
The EasyBlaze softwood won a little more heat bye 25 degrees and ash just blows out of the burn pot . Cubex burned clean for a Hardwood but the ash did cling a bit to the sides of the burn pot and the thermal couple . I'm sure if you're using a Harman type burn system they would be great . In my case when I fill the hopper the blower is still running and kicking most of the ash out if I use a good stoftwood .
Well I just had a scary moment. I went to log in and it said error code 403 Forbidden so I'm thinking what did I say ! Seems to be fine now .
Lauzon Force hwd's in the Harman, ashes look very soft. Nothing like the sister Cubex which creates a hanging left hand turd
I sent them a message via Facebook and they got right back to me . " Russ-- we briefly had a permissions conflict but I managed to get it sorted out fairly quickly " So it's all good now
