Accurate dry matter testing plays an important role in understanding potato quality and how your crop will perform during processing.
 
The PW4 Digital Hydrometer makes testing quick, simple and accurate by automatically calculating dry matter content, starch percentage, underwater weight and specific gravity from a potato sample.
 
With instant results, built in data storage and USB export for further analysis, the PW4 makes it easy to test, record and monitor potato quality.

When potatoes are moving through a busy processing line, even the lightest of impacts can create bruising, some of which is not noticeable until the potatoes are in storage.
 
That is where our TuberLog saves the day!
 
By travelling through the line alongside the potatoes, our TuberLog records the impacts it experiences and highlights areas of machinery that may need to be investigated.
  
See how TuberLog can transform your harvesting and processing lines, for more information, visit our website or give use call.

Hidden bruising can have a big impact on potato quality, and spotting it early can make all the difference!
 
Our Martin Lishman Hot Box helps reveal hidden bruising in as little as 12 hours, providing a clearer understanding of tuber damage and helping identify potential handling issues before they become bigger problems.
 
A simple but valuable tool for monitoring potato quality throughout harvest, handling and storage.

A hot spot might only affect a small area, but leave it too long and it can quickly become a much bigger problem.
 
Our Trouble-Dry Hot Spot Spears gives you a simple way to target rising temperatures exactly where they appear, helping bring problem grain back under control without disturbing the rest of the store.
 
With Standard, Extra and Ultra options available, there is a Trouble Dry solution to suit different store sizes and cooling demands.

Here’s five ways Barn Owl Wireless helps improve health and safety in your grain store.

Stick it. Screw it. Suck it... Simple!
 
Tackle hot spots in three simple steps with our Trouble-Dry Hot Spot Spears!
 
Stick your temperature probe into the grain to locate the hotspot, screw the Trouble-Dry spear directly into the problem area, then place a grain cooling fan on top to suck out the warm air and bring the temperature back under control.
 
A simple way to target localised heating before it becomes a bigger storage problem.

Meet Farmer Matt and Farmer Jamie.
 
They are both managing grain stores, but their days look very different.
 
Farmer Jamie relies on manual checks. That means regular trips back to the store, checking temperatures, watching for changes and making sure fans are switched on or off at the right time.
 
Farmer Matt has Barn Owl Wireless!
 
From his phone, Matt can keep an eye on grain conditions remotely, receive alerts when something needs attention and use automatic fan control to make the most of suitable cooling conditions without constantly heading back to the store.
 
While Jamie is fitting grain store checks around the rest of his day, Matt has a much clearer view of what is happening without needing to be there.
 
The same job, but very different ways of managing it.
 
Discover Barn Owl Wireless and see what it could change in your day!

This is a brilliant idea we spotted while filming at a customer’s grain store!
 
Tucked away in the corner we found a Trouble-Dry, kept close to hand and ready to go if a hot spot appears.
 
When grain starts heating up, being able to act quickly matters. Simply screw the spear into the affected area, fit the fan and start drawing the heat out before it develops into a bigger problem.
 
A simple habit, but a very handy thing to keep near by before the problem areas get worse.
