moisture meter


Information

Moisture Testing

Calculators

Calculate moisture content for high moisture samples. By entering weight before air drying, weight after air drying and moisture content determined by meter, you can calculate the moisture content before air drying. This calculator is useful when the moisture content of the grain is higher than those listed on the CGC's moisture conversion tables.

Calculate grain weight loss caused by artificial drying. By entering original moisture, final moisture and original quantity you can calculate weight loss percentage, weight loss quantity and final quantity. Calculation is based on the formula for moisture shrinkage allowed for tough, damp, moist or wet grain artificially dried at the producer’s request at primary elevators.
