the hotter temp you dry the more moisture removed per BTU

We try to run our Super B dryers at 225 degrees dump hot at about 17.5 --18%

was told the most efficient way to dry higher temps --as long as dumping hot and not cooling really fast works good
IF quick cooling in the dryer will end up with more FM and stress cracks
BUT removing a bunch of moisture in bin best to transfer after cooling -- moisture will run down the bin walls
