TOU TS HEARD THE TALK. There’s a better way to dry grain. It’s called CHILLCURING ™ because It means drying without heat. Here’s what the talk is all about. THE GRAIN Every kernel of gram is alive when it comes out of the field It is a seed, able to grow because it has the ability to take on moisture Likewise, it can be kept in a state of preservation by removing the moisture already in it But by heating the gram to dry it, the seed life is destroyed By removing heat and moisture from the gram, it becomes dormant, and stays alive Then it can ripen to full weight, losing only water while keeping valuable protein, starches and sugar TEE SYSTEM It’s simple Gram goes from the field right to the bin With the unique AIRFRAME” and AIRFLCOR” the gram rests on a solid bed that allows maximum ventilation Clean dry air is the best curing medium for the gram GRAINLAMPS™ provide electric sunshine, cleaning and drying the air beneath the floor, before it passes through the gram. Fans force air under the floor Rising through the gram, this dry outside air carries away moisture and heat At the peak of the bin a jumbo 40” turbine, the WHtRLCOOLER u , puts nature to work for you Wmd and rising air keeps it turning, venting the system naturally A special HARVESTAT" Control System monitors the curing process A simple setting controls the GRAINLAMPS“ to make best use of free, natural air THE FACTS Shrinkage factors vary from 1 25% to 1 75% per point of moisture removed Drying charges have been from 1 <P to 2<E per point of moisture removed. This cost will only go up In this comparison, gram moisture is 27% Commercial Gas-drying for storage.
