La Crete

[JRA]

Bought 2.4 tons of these and have one ton of blazers left from last year. I have to say the la crete are burning great so far. I have gone through about three bags and they feed well and burn extremely hot. Obviously more ash than the blazer dfs but it's the light fluffy stuff so no issues there. Anyone else burning these this year. I burnt about 20 bags or so last year and forgot how much I liked them. price was right amd couldn't pass them up.

I have not burned any this year yet, I am using a few damaged bags of something else
on these raw nights, but last year it was my go to pellet, for certain.
You are right about the ash... it "looks" like more sometime at first,
but it is so light and fluffy, there is no real "weight" there...

Like 'em!

We have them in Barrington, NH.
A little far for you.
Hopefully, someone closer to your area will have an answer for you!
If you find them, try a few bags. I doubt you will be disappointed..

Nice, thanks. How much per ton?

La Cretes are $275 per ton.
Sold on 1.2 ton pallets (60 bags, not 50)... so the pallet price is $330.

I'd suggest running them through a pellet vacuum first, they have a LOT of fines. Burn good otherwise.

Not sure if anyone else is using this year's batch but these are burning extremely hot this year. the real feel temp north of boston is 19 degrees and it's snowing (not sticking just flurries). my living room is 75 degrees on level 2 setting out of five. just had to turn stove down to level 1 it's way to hot in here
