    I use sawdust and only thing I can say is use your torch for 2min at least on each hole. Maybe the type of wood is holdin u back? Did you pack it loosely or tight. I usually put the sawdust in give it a few smacks and put some more in. Never had a problem with cherry,hickory,maple etc.

    I've also heard of people drying out pellets in either the microwave or the oven. Not sure which
