    Clean Burn brand of wood pellets contain none of the bark, dirt or insects associated with burning wood. The low moisture content of the Clean Burn wood pellets results in nearly total combustion when used in an approved wood pellet stove, reducing emissions and creosote buildup almost entirely. Wood pellets cost less per energy unit than almost all fuels. Clean Burn pellets are made from 100% wood sawdust and shavings which are dried, screened, ground and compressed in Tacoma, Washington. The pellets produce a consistently high BTU, low ash fuel. No additives or binders are used in the process.

      Superior Pellet in the Lopi Leyden.  Pictures below is all the proof you need. I have only seen ash levels this low one other time and it was from another West Coast Pellet Mill from Oregon.

      I was surprised when a package showed up at my door addressed from Manke Lumber of Tacoma, WA.  Who knew that inside this box was the West Coast USA Holy Grail of Wood Pellets.  Packaged was 1 bag of Premium* Wood Pellets (Super Premium ++ compared to anything out here on the East Coast marked "Premium", Oh,,please don't jest Manke), 1 Clean Burn brochure, and 1 Manke Lumber business card with the name Todd Wright.

      I quickly picked up the phone and called this soothsayer of sawdust to thank him for his kind donation.

      Upon opening the bag to inspect the pellets I noticed that they are almost indistinguishable from Cubex Wood Pellets, my favorite hardwood pellet in appearance, texture, density and sound (yes sound, massive sound difference between pellets of various density).  Below is a side by side of the 2 brands of wood pellets.

      Pro's:

      1. Heavy Duty Bag

      2. Ash - very little

      3. Heat - Manke Lumber has >8200 BTU/LB. The bag I received was >9000 easy.

      4. Smell - They even smelled nice for a West Coast Pellet which is usually stronger in smell like your Okanagans or Blazers.

        Con's:

        1. ? - I'm not sure,, the bags are heavy? I could not find one.  Even the fines were low even after being shipped from the furthest point in the lower 48 to my house by UPS.

         

          Well all you West Coast and Central USA Pellet Mills.  The Gauntlet has been thrown!  I am now going to be putting up 3 different categories for Best of the Best 2011-12 which are;

            Have used about 15 bags of cleanburn so far. I detect a chemical smell which is unpleasant. I have previously only used bear mountain pellets and did not have the smell. I read an earlier comment that these pellets burn hotter than bear mountain, and I am thinking that causes the smell from the paint on the stove. I will probably switch back to bear mountain to eliminate the smell. Would appreciate any suggestions.

            This is my first year burning them and I am quite happy. The last five years or so I'd used only Bear Mountain or Lignetics. Cleanburn actually burns as well either of those brands.

            We also love Clean Burn but were told by a service rep for our stove that they burn too hot and that it was the cause of our stove turning off on its own. I would appreciate your comments as we prefer Clean Burn but changed and are unhappy with our new purchase.

            The best pellets I've used so far. 1st year in our dual stove home I used another brand (can't remember the name) and they were not bad. Last season we purchased a pallet of Clean Burn. Loved'em. Hot fires, ash was nill! Very little soot. We ran out towards the end of the season, summer came late, and our local store only had Lignetics. I thought since they were 50cents more a bag, they must be great too.... WRONG. Lignetics burned dirty, not as hot and twice the ash?? The glass was black after two days. I'm a big fan of Clean Burn. Plan to use from now on.

            Stoves, Avalon free standing and Breckwell Insert.

            Quad-fire Mt Vernon..lots of research about pellets. Cleanburn is the only brand I've burned and extremely pleased. High heat, very low ash, durable bags, and next to no fines despite shipping to AK.

            I Have a England Pellet stove - I did a comparison between 3 other brands I have at my house at -4O Degree below Fairbanks week the clean burn pellets heated my garage 10 degrees warmer. And the ash left behind after 2 days was 50% less. NO JOKE
