awesome story. that was maine?

Yes, the TV station was out of Portland.....ooops, I mean the Web Station on the computer.
 
Very neat video. I have this fantasy about starting a pellet plant. Where do you even BEGIN to sort through that process?

No yellow "pellet making for dummies" book out there yet.

Quite an investment.
 
That was a good story!
I found a dealer for these pellets 5 miles from my house.
I put my name in for 4 tons. She said deliveries are every other week.
$295/ton

Price seems high for that area.....anyone else agree/disagree?

Yes it is high.
All dealers in this are are about the same.
Hopefully next year and beyond prices/availability will settle down.
Burning pellets is a long-term commitment not just for this coming Winter.
Oil is around $3.60/gal here right now.
 
I got 4 tons this spring.I will have to get 2 more by the end of the year. Burned them all winter last year they are great pellets. I think they are better than the energex or penningtons I have used. They are almost as good as the cosy comforts I can get sometimes.

Sounds Good!
I called the distributor this morning.
We should get them in 2-3 weeks.
She told me that they are "Premium" 80% Hardwood 20% Softwood
Anxious to get them in the basement before Old Man Winter knocks on the door.
