I haven't had any issues with LaCrete's this season other than the price going up. Tried the Logik e blend and were loaded with fines.
I know certain softwoods have over abundance of fines and it seems to happen more with Sprucewoods like Matra and EasyBlaze..
I think in my observations with the Logik e blend it's something at the plant operations. Back in October I had tried them and had no issues. LG and LaCrete are clean softwoods. For the last 3 seasons I have been mixing pellets giving myself more work but managed to raise my temperature 10 - 15 degree's above the door. Stay warm kids! ......
