does anybody out there screen their pellets for fines and if so what is your method??? thanks
 
I built a vacuum pellet cleaner, and use it on every bag......MUCH less dust flying in the house since i started that. Yes, one more step involved with filling the stove, but it was worth it to me.

I can post pics of mine if you want.
 
As imacman says and does, I also vacuum every bag I use and it is one less thing to worry about.
 
Or you can go this route and put your bag on the top shelf, let the pellets slide down some window screen you have stapled to the square pieces of wood on either side and push them into a waiting bucket or coal hod.
