Heard they're selling coal at Manmouth Material in Primrose Pa. Someone said they were stripping but I don't know if they have their own breaker. Is it good or bad. Anyone know????

Reason I'm asking is I'm down to burning local coal and getting a half moon fire. Coal from other sources burns just fine but I'd rather haul local. Yeah you heard me, a half moon fire in a EFM. That's some good stuff huh.

No Breaker I think they are sending it to Direnzo which you do not want coal from there anyway
Try Superior UAE Harmony mine Sherman or Summit who's coal are you burning now
Have you been Pulling the fines handel 20 sec.when it is running everyday on the 520 you might have a block in the air holes in the grates on the one side of the pot
