I could be wrong, but I think if you open up the bottom seive to a half inch you will get enough air. I think you need to put in the deep toothed wide spaced corn chaffer to get the capacity up. On my 8820 the limiting factor is walker loss, except on slopes then you have to slow down to avoid chaffer loss but on the level it is the straw walkers. I use the same chaffer on beans too, works good.
