Why use a humidimeter for your cereal?
The humidity of cereals** plays a central role in their quality and shelf life. Poor control of this parameter can cause heavy consequences for your operation:
- ** Development of moulds** and mushrooms
- Appearance of mycotoxins hazardous to health
- Heating and fermentation of stored grains
- Discharge of nutritional and commercial quality
- Depreciation of the selling price of the lots
- Economic losses up to several % of harvest
With the MINITEST GODE, you measure this rate accurately and anticipate all these risks to ensure optimal storage of your grains.
How to achieve a reliable result with MINITEST?
The reliability of a moisture measurement is based on two essential conditions** that MINITEST guarantees:
Accurate sampling
A poorly dosed sample immediately distorts the measurement. MINITEST was designed to allow a rigorous and reproducible ** dose** for each use, ensuring reliable and comparable results over time.
Standardised transfer in the apparatus
The transfers always identical from the sample to the measuring chamber eliminates variations due to manipulation. This is the guarantee to obtain consistent data, regardless of the conditions or operator.
These two principles make MINITEST a more reliable ** tool than many competing humidity meters**, where the quality of the measurement too often depends on the user's gesture.
The advantages of MINITEST GODE
Quick and accurate measurement
In a few seconds, MINITEST provides you with a reliable result on the moisture content of your cereals. No longer need to wait for laboratory analysis: measurement is done directly on the operation, in real time.
Ease of use
The** simple and intuitive interface** makes MINITEST accessible to all without prior training or technical expertise. A major asset for farms that want to democratize quality control with the entire team.
Polyvalence — Compatible with many cereals
The MINITEST is compatible with a wide range of grains:
- Bread (tender, hard)
- Maize
- Orange
- Ocean
- Seigle
- Tritical
- Colza
- And many other cereals and oilseeds
Only one device for all your measurement needs.
Prevention of loss
By knowing the real humidity rate of your grains, you adapt your storage conditions and avoid problems related to excess moisture. A precautionary approach that protects your harvest and profitability.
When to use MINITEST GODE?
The use of a humidometer is particularly strategic at several stages in the production chain:
Before harvest
Measure grain moisture directly in the field to determine the optimal time to launch the combine harvester. Harvesting too early is losing yield; Too late is risking degradation.
At the time of harvest
Continuously control the moisture of harvested grains to adjust your drying and storage decisions. Regular monitoring ensures the quality of each dumpster.
Before storage
** Avoid overstocking** of too wet grains, which may affect your entire harvest. The MINITEST gives you the green light or invites you to go through the drying box.
During drying
Optimize drying by controlling the gradual reduction of moisture to the ideal storage threshold (usually 14-15% for cereals).
During storage
Perform ** point checks** to check moisture stability and detect any anomalies before they become problematic.
