How do I get pellets out of hopper. Not happy with what is in there,but don’t really know how to empty
 
I use a plastic grain scoop. Got from RK. Works great getting pellets out of 5 gal buckets as well.
 
Vac out the firepot, empty vac and vac out the bin. Then turn the auger on in test mode to empty it, then vac out those pellets in the firepot. The vac is your friend!!
 
I use a buckethead attachment from Home Depot. Just attaches to a 5 gallon bucket and functions as a shop vac. Pop the buckethead off, put a lid on and you have neat and easy storage.
I use the same, first use a red solo cup and scoop out as much as I can then go in with the bucket head.
Really wish they had a pellet dump.
 
I use my hand, the little bit that's left in the auger is either the vac or running the auger. I've never done it just to change pellets, wouldn't think what is left in the auger would be enough to fuss with if that's the reason.
