[QUOTE="Lodekka, post: 7707681, member: 31706"] Over time the samples gradually dry out. Apart from calibrating/repairing/servicing the actual moisture meter, I always check all the accessories (clamp lead and electrode cell etc). This ensures continuing accuracy and reliability. One check is for overall leakage, but I also do a sample test with some grain/barley etc. I have ziplok bags of barley and wheat which started off around 15% but over time (about 18 months) have now dropped to around 13% when kept indoors. Once i know the meter is good, the rest is just the scales and interpretation of the results - so for me the actual value doesn't matter - it is the repeatability and consistency i am looking for. Not specifically the answer to your question - just my experience. So , yes, it does dry out gradually. Hope it helps. [/QUOTE]
