@TeflonTron For several years we have heated our home with a 25kw pellet boiler, we used to burn just wheat straw pellets. You can provide all your heating and hot water with grass pellets, however grass pellets like straw pellets produce more ash than wood pellets and can create other issues.

I hope that someone can answer this and it doesn't sound too silly of me; it it really just as simple as creating pellets from leaves, grass, etc and then burning them through a pellet stove? You wouldn't be able to make enough to heat a home boiler though (for hot water etc) though, right?

While grass pellets can serve as fuel pellets, care must be taken due to the potential increased corrosion within the stove due to chloride produced from burning grass pellets.

Do you know if these would work in a FEMA type gasifier or would they produce to much ash?

I'd like to see the grass pellets actually burning in a stove as well. The FREE aspect of the pellets is nice once you've paid for a multi-thousand dollar mill.... I've shy'd away from the purchase because I'm not sure if these pellets will perform well enough in my stove. If the ash content is too high compared to premium hardwood pellets it might plug up my burn pot & outside vent. I also don't want to buy ANOTHER multi-thousand dollar unit (hammer mill) to process other items to pelletize. :(

not sure but if they are chopped up and the moisture content is 10-15% you should be able to.
