60 miles south of Indianapolis | I use a 40 year old 27 foot 6 ring bin/stirrator setup with a Behlen dryer. I typically dry in batches of 4000 bu. Had some corn as wet at 26%. I checked it the other day and it was 105 degrees under the floor. It's not a fast set up but it works for my small acres. I'll dry over 20,000 bu this fall that way. Cost is somewhere in the 3-4cents per point per bu range. As others have said the key in this setup is not stacking too much wet corn at a time. Better to dry smaller batches at a time versus getting too much in there that the air can't get through. Test weight has always been good for us this way, running 59.1 last load i took in. |
What temp do you use on corn drying
