Best heater for drying wheat

[twizz]

Got a lot of wheat to dry in Brice baker bins 100 ton lots. What size space heater would I need to take moisture down from 22% down to 17%

No heat just air to start with can bring it down will only need heat once @ 17% pick your days

400000 btu if you want to dry even in rain but as said blow ambient air only until moisture is below 18%. Using heat works but the moist air from the lower grains will increase the moisture in the bin higher up unless there is enough air volume to force the damp up and out. The worst case scenario would be over dry grain at the bottom of the bin and a damp crust at the top. Personally I would dry with air only for now and then blow to keep the grain fresh and use frosty nights to finish the process. This all depends when the loading date is though.

Thanks no load out date as it will all be used at home for feed. We can blow ambient air when weather permits.

This. What are Brice Baker bins? Circular bins with a central column?

Have an ex demo 280,000 BTU indirect diesel Master heater for sale that would do that job if interested?
