Contrary to another post you CAN have the chaffer too tight in beans. I usually start setting the chaffer on any combine so my index finger will go in the opening, then give the shoe plenty of air. You may have to vary it a little to get the final sample you are after. You want the trash to float out the back of the combine, not just fall off the chaffer. If the chaffer is too tight the air flow will seemingly be "pressurized" with an effect similar to placing your thumb over a garden hose which will not clean the grain but will carry it over. You want air VOLUME, not pressure. Open the chaffer, increase the air, and the threshed pods should go away. Keep the trash floating off the shoe. Mike
