Formerly NE North Dakota, now NW MN | We use screw fans on dry beans a lot. Ironically, dry beans only have to be down to 16 to deliver. We've taken em from 18, maybe 19 down to 16 with 3 fans in a 500 bu. truckload, after about 2.5 weeks at 45-75 temps.
17 to 13 seems like a very tall order to me. Especially with colder temps.
That said, few years ago up here, every ones beans were wet. It was the third week of Oct. so we decided it was go-time. Got set up to dry, but storage was full of HRSW. Hauled everything to the elevator. They then blended our dried soybeans with everyone elses wet soybeans and sold them as fast as they came in the door.
Point of that long and wondering anecdote- maybe you're elevator will take em and blend em off. |
