8.1. Manual Dryer Speed
Note
These speeds are recommended as a STARTING POINT only for input as manual metering roll speed
until the DryerMaster system reaches full automatic. As grain drying factors change, speeds will need to
change in order to maintain a correct and steady output grain moisture value.
Some factors to consider when drying grain are:
• The type of grain. Some varieties are moisture-resistant compared to others.
• The end usage of the grain - will it be used for seed, feed, commercial, or some other usage.
• The outside weather conditions - including temperature, humidity, and even wind.
• The moisture content of the incoming grain.
• The cleanliness of the incoming grain.
• The crop region.
