Corinth pellet review

[roadrat]

Well I just picked up and tried 3 bags of the new Corinth pellets (in the blue bag with the PFI certification).(hardwood)
The pellet size was very good,(most pellets were 1/2 inch or less)
average amount of ash.
slightly less soot on the glass(than penningtons)
little to no fines in the bags
deffinitly burn hotter than the penningtons I have been using.
Price at Paris farmers union in Auburn Maine is $289.00 ton.


hope this helps someone out.

Merry Xmas

Did you find any pieces of corn or pellets with corn in them?

I have not seen any corn in there, but I hav'nt really been looking that hard either. Oh well they burn nice and hot and I am in need of at least 1 more ton.

I had a ton of the ones in the new blue bags. Emphasis on the had. Purchased at Aubuchon Hardware in Foxboro, MA. The first thing I noticed was the overpowering smell that permeated my house after I stacked them in the cellar. Than when I burned the first bag it resulted in a clinker that would FILL the burnpot and cause the pellets to spill out over the side during feed. These clinkers formed after 2 hours. Every 2 hours until the hopper was finally and mercifully empty of them. Aubuchon was very nice and took them back without a problem. We called Corinth and they seemed fairly concerned. Lessons learned: don't buy a ton w/o burning a bag first and
burn just enough at first to evaluate them.
