A little dry on the palette, but with a fresh oak nose and a resiny finish. :cheese:
That's a decent price. Here's a recent thread on the same topic.

Wood Heat Stoves
Minister of Fire
Try a couple of bags to make sure they burn OK in your stove first if you can. Probably a little warm right now to be burning but at least you'd know before you buy a large quantity.

the price of one bag of pellets may be equal to 2.5 gallons of oil, but the bag only has 8000 BTU whereas the 2.5 of oil has 266,000 BTU and that is the last time I defend oil.

Hi Scott
That's about 8,300 BTUs per lb of wood pellets I believe.
1 bag = 40 x 8,300 = 332,000 BTUs
According to the wood pellet manufacturers
For example see
http://www.woodpellets.com/heating-fuels/wood-pellets.aspxCleanfire™ Pacific pellets are known for their high heat and low ash content. Not only are they tested at the mill to ensure super-low ash and high BTU, but they’re also certified through independent third-party labs to ensure the highest quality. Cleanfire™ Pacific pellets are sourced from the Western forests of North America, and include material recycled from standing deadwood. Ash residue ranges from 0.3% - 0.5%, which means CleanFire™ Pacific pellets meet the PFI super-premium ranking for ash content, and the heat output typically ranges from 8200 – 8400 BTU/pound.

Ive heard mixed reviews about the stove chow. Some people hate them and some love them. Definately try before you buy.

You have to burn off the moisture first, all biomass has a usable btu output of 8k

The majority of members who bought last years batch were very happy with them. Hopefully, this years are just as good.
