yes... Great pellet for heat..high 8k but even 5 yrs ago the excesive fines have always been an issue.
 
Incredible amount of fines. I buy thru Lyme Green Heat, NH, but I have a bulk bag only, not one of their systems so I look at every bucket I put in my P68. There are so many fines the ash builds back over the fire and sometimes when the hopper gets a little low, I find the stove has gone out and when I look in the auger all I find is a tiny bit of fines. It was bad last season but nothing like this. I bought a ton of 22lb bags of Force pellets, and the stove works like it should. I'm new to bulk delivery, is this a delivery problem or are the pellets coming out of the mill this way?
