When you are using a grinder mixer your ration doesn't end up THAT accurate anyway even with a scale compared to the computerized feed mills in town. Do we test our corn for weight and protein before we run it through the grinder? I never did and I don't think any of my neighbors did either back then. We just drove up to the bin, got the grinder howling and stood and watched till it was done. That said,the Arts Way I used didn't have a scale but I always wished it did. Maybe I could have had a little better ration, then again, maybe not. How accurate do those scales stay anyway? I never have had much faith in any scale on portable equipment. The weight of the corn I was grinding varied all the way from the low 50's to the low 60's in weight depending on what kind of a corn growing year we had and what hybrid of corn was run through the grinder. I always ground till the feed quit flowing down in the windows and started building back up till it was 3/4 of the way up the top window. That was my 'scale' if you will. Almost all of it was straight corn/protein only which made it easy.
