It’s called CHILLCURING ~ because it means CURING without heat. Here’s what the talk is all about. THE6RAIH 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 grain 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. THE SYSTEM It’s simple. Gram goes from the field right to the bin. With the unique AIRFRAME’” and AIRFLOOR™ the gram rests on a solid bed that allows maximum ventilation. Clean dry air is the best curing medium for the grain. GRAIN LAM PS™ 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 WHIRLCOOLER™, puts nature to work for you. Wind 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 use of free, natural air. J.C. Snavely & Sons promote VE % James L. Brackbill LANCASTER - cording to a recent an nouncement by Jere M.
