55%-60%



that is a good space for calculating with 0% moisture in HWFP.  Since they are probably around 5% in reality, you end up closer to 60-65% in reality which is good.

I suggest working at increasing water content or availability of water, before adding more dry weight.
If you still don't get 100% BE when the water is correct, then add nutrients or energy.

Eventually if you keep at it, you will know exactly what to add.

All of my fuelpellets are broken down. The bags get some condensation during the growth I could try adding 1/4 more cups of water to the mix and see where it takes me at the current ratio or 1/2 cup more water when I go from a half cup of wheat bran to a cup.

Yup, I have always had that issue with wood pellets as the main body.
It also rejects water content the more dry weight you add to it.

Especially if the added item has lower holding.
