Do you expect that there will be quite a lot of low quality wheat and rye this year, that will only be saleable at a low price?
My friend, who was a parishioner 25 years ago, sold a couple of brands of corn-fired heating stoves over a dozen years ago.
He said he could build a better one and did. His, with a number of innovative ideas and qualifying for several patents, licensed for wheat and rye as well.
Quite a few have been in service for over ten years and still doing a good job.
Use about a bushel or slightly more daily to heat about 2,000 sq. ft., with good circulation and insulation - rated 60,000 BTU. As they use power draft, don't need a chimney but can be vented through any exterior wall. They operate well on low quality grains. He says cheaper heat than any except wood that you cut yourself.
Check info at www.grainstoves.com - must use the plural, as someone else had tied up the singular for resale.

Good wishes for the rest of summer.
