I think most dried beans are combined like wheat. The machine is run in the
field. I have seen some small combines. I don't know what your volume is. We
used to place dried beans in a pile on a tarp cover them over and beat with
sticks. Open and lift and shake the tarp. Beans would go to bottom and leave
hulls on top for easy removal. TexasBill
