So there's several different theories out there with setting a cleaning system for corn. I subscribe a little bit more to the theory of if I'm setting a combine and I want clean grain, if I'm putting in my own bins, I don't want a lot of cob. I don't want a lot of stalk. I want that stuff to get out of the combine. All I want is whole healthy kernels.

So if it takes me running a fan speed of 1250 or 1300, and I can keep it in a combine at that, I'm good. I like that. The more air, the better. If I have to chaffer clearance, I want it to be as far closed as it can possibly be because that's going to minimize my trash and damaged material that's getting in there.

If I'm getting little chunks of cob or if I'm getting little stalk pieces, things like that in my sample, and I can get rid of that by closing my sieve down and running it through the return again, I'm doing it. Because unless it's damaging a high percentage of kernels again, and I know that that damage is coming from the tailings and the return, I don't see the negative of it.
