Pellet Mill

You will need to experiment, but the the normal rule is 20 pounds per hour per HP. The first ten minutes will not make many pellets because the die has to heat up. Once it's hot the pellets start coming out, but LOTS depend on the material you are trying to pelletize. One of the first tests I did was with maple shavings. They were from a planer. Once the mill was at temperature I made pellets from the large garbage bag full in a few minutes. I was surprised at how nice the pellets were. Smooth and hard and shiny and hot, ...too hot to hold until they cooled off a little.
