I noticed something different between last years bag and this years. They are now labeled ultra premium with ash below .5%. Anyone else seeing these, I'm paying $239 a ton.
These are not a new pellet this year. Here is the deal.
Hamer, up until this spring had two seperate plants that made wood pellets. One plant in Elkins, WV and one plant in Mount Hope, WV. At the Elkins plant, they make a pellet that is superior to the pellet that was produced at the Mount Hope plant. Pellets from Elkins have beens labeled Ultra-Premium for many, many years. The pellets from the Mount Hope plant were labeled "premium" and the bag was identical except for the word "ultra."
What changed this year is that the plant in Mount Hope closed up, and the only remaining plant is the Elkins, WV plant. Therefore, the only Hamer pellets that you will ever see again are the "ultra-premiums."
Pretty good price for a very good pellet....I'd load-up on them if i lived near there.True Value in Chester, MD with a $10 shore saver coupon
I have both Somersets and Hamers "ultra" premium and in my opinion the Hamers are superior. I have found that they burn much hotter in my stove and the ash is super low. Been using the Somersets for above 30 degrees, switch to Hamers when it gets below 30(like tonight). I love these things. So far best pellet I've burned. First season, but so far have tried 5 different ones and Hamers is top of the list.Hamer's Ultras were the first pellets I burnt. Fantastic pellet! Best heat in my experience, even better than Somersets, and virtually no ash. I had to adjust my stove's ashdump times because so little ash was produced.
