In Reply to: hot corn posted by bradley martin on January 13, 2019 at 15:13:21:
Back in 70s I worked for a bto at the time. He had 200 watt light bulb in each bin. We filled one bin right up to peak which surrounded bulb with corn. At some point someone turned on light and forgot about it. Running aeration fan, after about 3 weeks we smelled a burning smell around yard but could not figure out where coming from. Got stronger throughout day until we realized its coming from that bin. As soon as we shut fans off heat rose to the top and warped the roof sheets. We started emptying the bin but the load out sump soon plugged with lumps of charred corn. Ended up cutting hole in side of bin and let it run out. Spread it out in field and had fire dept. spray it down. Next day cattle feeder came and scooped it up and fed it to cattle. Don't know if he had insurance or not. Quite a loss. 20,000 bushel bin.
