[Stoves] Torrified Pellets

[Paul Anderson]

Dean and Ronald,

I, too, am seeking torrified materials.  Contacts with two companies 
have not resulted in any arriving at my address thus far.

Question:   "torrified pellets" could have two origins.

1.  Biomass is torrified and then pelletized.

2.  Pellets are torrified.

Which are you seeking?   I will accept either or both.

Also, "torrified" is not a quantitative term.   Torrified at 260 C vs 
290 C or 320 C are all torrified
