Vermont Wood Pellets unethical?

X2...off between Xmass and New years...no missus to speak to due to being in trouble one too many times previously

I might be interested in that as well. I'm not off, per say, but it's easy going at the office and a sudden day off is easy to get.

Hmm, this could be a " PP GTG @ VT WP " Translation, Pellet Pig Get Together @ Vermont Wood Pellets.

I might be in, But between those holidays, only could possibly manage Friday through monday of that period. I work the holidays.....

Before we get too excited, We should see what days they are open? I'm sure they will have some down time over the holidays. It was Iron stoves idea, Your in charge!

Where's the rest of the gang?

Rparker seems to have a contact, but im willing to call them . PM me if you have a secret contact, or can help assist with a tour from the CT crew.

I don't have any contacts with VMP, If Rparker is willing to get in touch? See what days are available. Maybe even start a thread with the plan?

Ill PM him, not sure how often he is on the forum.

Let's do it. I will contact them and find out what their schedule is for the holidays.

I might be interested, too, assuming permission from the boss. We should def. move this to a new (planning) thread.

I would also love to meet some of the other CT pellet guys but it's doubtful I can get off from work...my co-worker's wife is expecting a baby and he's got all the vacation time near the holidays. I look forward to a thread with details of the fun.

Like vegas baby! We can't say nada! jk

What happens At the Mill, stays at the Mill

If i go im bringing a backpack to sweep the floor

I bought a ton last month. Plan on burning when colder.
Thats all folks!

If OMV goes I'm out....I'm sure he's got some way of telepathically scarfing pellets from your garage just by staring at your eyes.

I'd be interested in a road trip, too!

I,m going to switch this to a new topic.

I'm in the market for another ton and was checking out several local pellet guy websites. FWIW, the Blakeslee website that prompted me to start this thread, has removed the word "unethical". They still show the Vermont pellets as a brand they carry (I don't think they've carried them for a few yrs) but now only say that the manufacturer has been "very unreliable".

Based on what was already discussed in this thread and the VWP tour that some of our members took, I tend to not believe the claims of the dealer. Does anyone know if Vermonts are available in central CT? BT is out of stock.

I just picked up a half ton on Saturday. I got the last of what my dealer had. He has 2 truck loads on order that will be in in two weeks. Vermont, unreliable? Or their pellets are so much in demand that thay can't keep up with orders? I would rather them keep their quality instead of pushing shitty pellets and ruining their product and following.

Hoot, how are they running in the P61? Friend of mine is burning them in an XXV. Loves the heat, no ash, actually has to turn the feed rate down below 2.
Only issue is that they blacken the glass quite a bit, but its a trade off to her with no complaints.
Actually, I think we need to change her gaskets this summer, so that may be part of the excess blackening.

Best pellet I have burned.I have been to his operation and he runs a very nice operation. a side note...He is a GREAT guy also. Ask any member from this forum who went on the trip and they will say the same.. GREAT pellet...CLASS operation...

Gbreda, I haven't started them yet. I got 6 bags of Spruce Pointes left. When I burned the VT's last year they were hot and very clean. But like you said, they did black out the glass. I'll chime in at the end of the week when I start running them.

How did you like the Spruces this year? Did you think they had a lot of fines in them?

only unless its false
