Ravelli stoves and Somerset pellets

[Wire12xu]

Hi there..

Does anyone have experience of using Ravelli stoves and Somerset pellets?
Last season we were burning Platinum pellets - these were excellent, no clinkers, low ash and very stable.
We experienced too many clinkers burning hard wood pellets... we tried various settings on the stoves and no luck.
Unfortunately our local dealer isn't offering soft wood pellets this season, apparently Platinum don't allow him to return defective bags.

Thanks..
Mark

Somerset's are one of the better hardwoods, I have not burned any in my Ravelli yet because they are almost impossible to get in my area but I have burned them before in other stoves and they are definitely better than most hardwoods as far as clinkers.

My stove burns any pellet 100%

Hi sweets.. can you explain what you mean by 'Its not the pellets , its the way your stove is burning the pellets....'
I'd like to learn and I'm open to suggestions on my Ravelli stove setup.

By settings, do you mean power settings or did you also adjust feed rate and air? You can adjust both those values slightly between power levels. Can't remember what settings I used to use for the Trebios that were hardwoods. Will try to check my binder to see if I recorded that...

you can make adjustments for each different pellet you burn to help with clinkers but some pellets your just not gonna eliminate the clinker totally, anyone claiming they can burn ANY pellet without a clinker I'd love to see it.
