YOU’VE HEARD
THE TALK.
There’s a better way to dry grain. 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.
