    9% ash? I don't think a pellet stove would run very long with pellets with 9% ash.

    Yes, they are nice, light fast, good heat, little dirty but whatever. Much better than the Cleanfire Pacific blend I've been using.

    Hmmm, you're the first person I've talked to that likes them. Glad they're working for you!

    Have been away awhile burning my stash slowly and watching all the pretty pile of pellets sitting at stores without a home.... awwwww. I don't need nothin' right now and just sitting back and watching the temp profile continue warm thru the end of the year. TSC just dropped here to $259/ton for their assorted crap so there are cracks in the armor. I got room, a big RAM and I got cash so come back down to earth baby, and I'll roll you for 4 tons.... Predicting the "sale" will start after the New Year. Any truth to the rumor that this is the upcoming Chinese New Year of the Pellet PIG???

    I just got a wifi thermostat for one of my Castiles and will be putting it online shortly. Details to follow in a new thread soon.
