We see this where users dont clean their stoves properly and the path of least resistance for exhaust becomes out through the hopper. Rare but...
Wood pellets retail for $2.00 USD / lbs. Pits and wheat are about a 1/3 that.
Pellets dont swell from the time you pour them in until when they run through. I think the culprit is more likely long pellets which get crunched...
I've got a moisture meter I use for grain and pits to know when I have dried them sufficiently. I could calibrate it for pellets but have never...
I thought all the drongo greenies were out here but having read the article I stand corrected.......
Just back from a holiday in old Blighty. Just about beaten the jetlag :headbang: Moisture in pellets is far less an issue than in grain as the...
With our stoves and HHT stoves out here we have an issue with fines blockages at the top of the drop chute. This is not related to moisture. A...
Nah I.m talking about a mechanical clean of the stove internals. THe easiest way to tell if you have a problem is to take the flue off the stove...

100% wheat. Probably about 2.5 ton this year just finished. Been a long cold winter for us, now we have the hottest Spring on record. What the.......
Another reason may be that the stove has been running at too low a temperature. This can cause condensation which can be far more acidic than...
That is a handsome looking stove. Never seen these out here, love the style of it. :)
A man after my own heart. You go gurl:thumbs:
We have a few owners who run a grain/pellet mix and swear by it. I find it only really works where the pellet length is fairly uniform and the...
Back from the NT. All went well until a stuff up on the last day saw one span collapse. Bugger! Note to self; double check important stuff...
