Anyone know of a way to dry corn other than putting it next to the wood stove? I contacted Breckwell and they said I could burn a 1:3 ratio of corn to pellets in my
Big E. Everyone around here just sells feed corn. BTW, how do you know if the corn is <15% moisture content??? Thanks.
 
The local co-op elevator that your local farmers take their corn to can measure your moisture content for you.

You might be able to buy dried corn from a local elevator.
