• a heating assembly being mounted within said housing;
• an agitator being positioned adjacent to said bottom wall to agitate grain positioned in said receiving space adjacent to said outer wall;
• said bottom wall having a channel extending therethrough configured for receiving grain;
• and
• a conveyor assembly being in communication with said channel, said conveyor assembly being configured to receive and transport grain away from said housing, said conveyor assembly including:
• a conduit attached to said bottom wall and being coextensive with said channel, said conduit including a first lateral wall, a second lateral wall and a lower wall attached to and extending between said first and second lateral walls;
• a rail being attached to said conduit;
• a chain being mounted on said rail, said chain forming a continuous loop, said chain including a plurality of links each including an upper plate and a lower plate, each of said upper and lower plates being horizontally orientated;
• and
• a plurality of paddles being attached to and extending downwardly from said chain, said paddles each extending between said first and second lateral walls when said paddles are within said conduit.
