If you are dropping on a pit it usually comes right out. If you are dropping on a farm auger then it will stick and take a lot longer. This load is better suited for belts and end dumps. Just letting you know in advance. We only use our hoppers for hominy and ddg in cooler weather, then all is ok. Other then that leave it for the belts and end dumps.
