All good, Alt. Apologies for being a bit testy.
Not a problem, I just figured you had an off day going on !

I burned AWF White Pine, which are rated as a Super Premium Pellet, when HD got a bunch in last month and was surprised at how well they did ( .25% ash 8600 BTU more or less). They burned hot and I rarely had to scrape the pot. My only issue is I was allergic to the pine but they burned clean and hot. And they were rather dusty so a bit hard to avoid contact of some sort. I burned about 12-15 bags of them but then my wrists started breaking out in a rash like my skin does when pine pollen is out in the spring, just not as severe. Itchy eyes etc.. So , great pellet but they have to be off my list.

Incidentally HD got $5.59 a bag for them or $269 a ton. They now are selling the filthy dirty Stove Chows ( by comparison) for the same price..
