Golden Fire Wood Pellets
Premium softwood fuel – 100% Douglas Fir
Golden Fire Wood Pellets are made entirely from Douglas Fir, with no binders, no plastics, and no additives. They’re produced using ultra-low moisture feedstock, which means more of the energy goes into heating your space rather than evaporating water.
Typical specs: approximately 8,500–8,700 BTUs per pound and ash content under 0.25% (fines less than 0.5%). They’re certified PFI premium grade and designed to give you hot, efficient performance with minimal clean-up.
In the U.S., you’ll find Golden Fire available through retailers like Lowe’s and regional lumber/home-supply stores. While the brand originates on the West Coast (Oregon), many suppliers stock it nationwide, so it’s accessible in states across the continental U.S.
In short: if your pellet stove handles softwood pellets well and you’re looking for high BTU output and low ash from a clean-burning fuel, Golden Fire is a strong contender.

Golden Fire Wood Pellets are a premium softwood heating pellet made from 100% Douglas Fir with no binders, glues, or additives, designed for efficient and high-output combustion in residential pellet stoves and boilers. These pellets feature very high heat output (approximately 8,500–8,700 BTU per pound) and ultra-low ash content (typically < 0.5%), resulting in clean burns and reduced stove maintenance. With low moisture content and PFI premium grade production, Golden Fire pellets deliver consistent, hot heat for home heating.

- Low – low ash
- super heat output (cheap burn pots could be damaged)
- beefy bags
Cons
- Cost (east coast connoisseur pellets)

Not good
Burnt about 10 bags and they were awesome. VERY little ash and burned like most other SDF. The last 10 bags turned the inside of my stove black with soot with a lazy fire in the pot. I recommended these to a friend of mine in another part of the state and he was having a similar issue.
