Central Iowa | Been hauling into ethanol plant. Seems moisture is always .5 % higher compared to local elevator.
Price is always 13-15 cents higher but always seems to be wetter in their tester. Local elevator and ethanol plant use the same model tester (GAC2200) I think. "SHrink rate" is 3.5 cents per
1/2 point moisture. Any ideas how to bring this up and how to check accuracy? Half point shrink on 10000 bu contract is $350.00. That would pay for my fuel bill ????? add that up by 50 to 100 semis a day? MAybe its just a variation in electronics, but like anyone if it affects my pocketbook , it makes me wonder!!! Think I will take same test pail to both locations next week.
TIA
