Golden Fire Pellets FAQ's
How are Golden Fire Pellets different than other pellets?
Golden Fire makes its pellets from 100% Douglas Fir. Over the years, numerous tests have shown that no other wood type burns as hot or as clean as Douglas Fir. Golden Fire pellets are also manufactured at its state of the art plant in Brownsville, Oregon. With consistent raw materials, experienced production workers, and premium quality machinery, Golden Fire sets the bar for "premium" pellets.
How long has Golden Fire been producing pellets?
Golden Fire has been producing wood pellets at the current Brownville location for over 25 years. This plant is considered the first pellet manufacturing plant in the USA.
Many companies claim to have the "best" pellets. How can I be sure I am getting the "best"?
The only way to really determine the "best" is to try several brands. Instead of buying 30 bags of one brand, first try buying 10 bags of three different brands. As you burn these different brands, measure the heat coming out of your stove, the amount of ash being produced, and how clean your viewing window is. In a few weeks you will know what brand burns "best".
Golden Fire pellets often appear darker than other pellets. Why?
There are two primary reasons for this dark appearance. First, Golden Fire pellets are compressed under great pressure to give them a long burn. This pressure heats the resins in the wood, and darkens the appearance of the pellets. Secondly, Douglas Fir sawdust is much darker in color than pellet companies using other woods such as Spruce, Pine, or White Fir.
