When I picked up the dry creek pellets to try I also picked up a bag of Maine woods.I am no expert and this is no scientific evaluation but every other pellet I have burned from the worst home depot pellets to Barefoot pellets and have been able to melt the stinky candle (the smell of fresh apple pie) my wife set on the stove at a 1-1 setting the Maine woods are now burning on 3-1 and its been 4 hrs the candle is still hard wax and the house is only 72 do Maine woods pellets put out any heat at all ?
