These are the averages for 48 weekly Goldenfire samples sent into Twin Ports Labs between July 1, 2012 and July 1 2013. The same as last year, I could send you a single test that would be amazing. However, we prefer to show our average because it is not just the good values that set us apart, it is the consistency. Please note that the Heating Value as received is even higher and the ash content even lower than last year.

Bear Mountain is same as our Goldenfire brand except we can mix up to 5% Western Red Cedar with the Douglas fir. We cannot detect a difference in testing other than a very slight increase in ash and an equally slight increase in heating value.
For more than 25 years Golden Fire Wood Fuel Pellets has set the industry’s GOLD STANDARD of wood pellet fuel. Our time-tested consistent production methods ensure that every bag you purchase contains the lowest moisture content, highest heat and lowest ash wood pellet fuel available because we hand select our raw materials ensuring that each and every pellet is made from 100% Douglas Fir.
You won’t find another pellet that is dried to our industry leading low moisture content of less than 2.5%, and unprecedented average of only 1.9%! Less moisture means you don’t have to burn off excess water in the pellets which results in more heat, heating your home faster, and an extremely low ash content that makes it easier to cleanup. Check out more details below and remember that when you’re heating with wood pellets, you’re leaving a smaller carbon footprint which means great things for our environment.
Summary
I LOVE THESE PELLETS! I hope that even under the new ownership I get spoiled with these arriving in the mail again. I need to update the pics and info…

not so good anymore!!!!
I’ve been burning golden fire for as long as I’ve used a pellet stove. since the early 90’s. I never had to clean my hopper because of sawdust at the bottom of the hopper. fast forward to 2020 -2022. I now need to clean my hopper every 20 bags because of so much sawdust at the bottom of my hopper. now my fire pot is now getting covered with clinkers. I talked with someone about the clinkers they tell me it’s to much dirt in the pellets. as far as the sawdust golden fire needs a bigger shaker to rid the pellets of sawdust before the press. they are trying to make to many pellets at a time. The shaker can handle the amount of product they are sending to the press.
