Posted by Stacey Freeman As for your bolter, you could fairly easily build a sieve to hook onto the eccentric on the Meadows that would sift out the meal first and then the grits. I built one that is about 6' long that I used for 8 years that worked very well. The only reason I changed from it was that I needed higher capacity than it could handle...might be something for you to consider. Stacey

Keith, if there is much moisture in the corn that you are going to put in the trash can, it could spoil; corn needs air movement which keeps it dry and fairly bug free. The best way for you to store a small amount of corn like you are talking about is to put it in a freezer or ref. (with them running of course). If freezing is not an option, you could put a wire bottom in your can, cut a hole under the screen, and put a small fan to the hole and blow air through the corn every week or two. This would be a small grain bin that would keep your corn well, but you would still need to watch it for weevils.
