The Koster Model “C” Moisture Tester is a reliable and efficient solution for measuring moisture content of various materials. This moisture tester has a sleek black powder-coated finish and is designed for use with 110-volt power. It has a standardized internal assembly that ensures precise heating of the sample, providing accurate and reliable results every time.

The Model “C” Moisture Tester is easy to use and provides precise and reliable heating, which is vital for the accurate measurement of moisture content. It can be used to measure moisture content in a variety of materials including grains, corn, forage, silage, wheat, wood, soybean, mushrooms, and more.

Regularly testing the moisture content of your yields is crucial for a number of reasons:

  • Excess moisture in stored grain or forage can lead to the growth of mold fungi.
  • Nutrients can be lost when crops are ensiled with excess moisture, as the weep or drain-off contains valuable nutrients.
  • Harvesting hay with too low of a moisture content can result in heavy leaf drop-off, which reduces the feeding value of the crop.
  • Forage with moisture content between 30% and 40% can lead to storage combustion, potentially destroying both the forage and the storage structure.
  • Ensiling process, a crucial step for crop fermentation, requires moisture content to be within a specific range for optimal results. Knowing the moisture content of your crops ensures that they are stored and used at the correct moisture level, resulting in better yields and higher-quality crops.

The Koster Model “C” Moisture Tester is an essential tool in any crop production operation, and with its easy-to-use design, accurate readings, and durable construction, it makes moisture testing simple and efficient. The black powder-coated finish of the tester provides not only a sleek look but also a durable surface that is resistant to scratches and rust, making it ideal for use in the field or in a laboratory. It is an ideal choice for farmers, ranchers, agronomists, and other professionals who need to measure moisture content in their crops and other materials.
