Evening,
Has anyone here ever grown any spelt and could possible give me some starting points for setting up the combine? ( new Holland tf44)
Thanks

Can’t remember the exact settings I use but I try to keep the drum about 10mm the try and thrash the hulls off. Doesn’t work that well tho. Sieves full open and don’t go too wild with the wind. This is with a lexion 570.

You’ll need lots of trailers because the tank fills at some rate with that stuff.

Just finished mine this week.
If you want just grain (impossible anyway with some varieties) the settings need to be the maximum agressive. With the hulls, well we want pieces of ear, I started with field bean settings and adjusted from there.
