    The lowest temp I saw over night was - 6* @ 4:30

    House @ 70* I bumped the stove up from my normal 4 to 5.

    I'm really liking the softies with their low ash.

    On high with a continuous feed, I drain a bag of Monties in 13 hours...

    Feed gate is in lowest position, if I open it full tilt, my high limit opens.

    No... Kiln dried/0.5 ash... they are only manufactured certain time of the year like seasonal beers at the Energex plant in Mifflintown,Pa.
    only sold to certain number of hearth dealers.. here then gone once a year..
    My dealer get's pre orders of around 200 tons for his stove customers and then cannot get them anymore till following spring.
    thankfully his wharehouse is half mile away...
    deff not anywhere near chows.. light to zilch on ash.
    Iburned couple tons of chows last year... they have come up in the ratings last couple years.
    Prob HD's better pellets.. But, still a mountain of ash to deal with.. Harman or no Harman.

    I can't see how anyone made money on those at HD..
    All the way from Oregon? and at same price as the other stuff.. maybe came in by rail?..
    I had 5 tons pellets in my basement but was able to make room for 30 bags or so or I would have sold the farm to buy some tons.
