Wanted to get two tons of okie firs however the vermont are listed much cheaper at another dealer. Never tried them however I have tried the okie df and they were easily the hottest pellet I have tried. How do the vermont stack up against the okies.
vermont or okie df

I have burned both this year as well. They are similar in terms of heat and ash. Save yourself some money and go with the Vermonts. Feel like this same question was just asked a couple weeks ago?

My last experience with Vermonts was not impressive. The year prior they were awesome though, so their inconsistency is not going to steer me towards them again. That, and I had a huge chunk of pulp from the die make my stove grind to a halt on the coldest night of the year. Knocked my hopper drop door go out of alignment.
When you had that chunk of pulp issue with the Vermonts, did you notify VWP?

I did. I must say they were very responsive and knew immediately from the picture where it originated from. They had changed over the dies in the interim, but the quality issue still remained. The production manager that I spoke to insisted that their QA was only improving, and couldn't understand why I felt the quality slipped. Also was more concerned with how I liked the new bags. That was really a non issue with me.
