ACCURACY

Various factors can result in inaccurate grain readings. The
following techniques provide possible solutions to ensure the
most accurate readings.

CONDENSING SAMPLES (CORN DRYING)

When testing wet grain, moisture condensation can cling and
build up on the cell causing inconsistent and inaccurate
readings.
In between every measurement, use a soft cloth to wipe out
the cell using extreme care not to damage the thermistor at
the bottom of the cell.

HIGH MOISTURE GRAINS

High moisture grains can get stuck when pouring into the cell.
NOTE: The mini GAC Loader hole size is designed to meet the
US Federal Standard Quart Kettle Test Weight method.
To release grain:
1. Jiggle the slider back and forth to loosen the grain.
2. Poke the grain with a small object, such as a pencil to
release grain into the cell.
