Abstract

The invention relates to a method for kiln drying of material for kiln drying or kilning material, especially cereals, pseudocereals, oilseeds or legumes, and to an apparatus especially for conduction of the method, wherein the method includes, as process steps, provision of kilning material to be treated on a tray (20) having at least one opening (21) for formation of a layer of kilning material (D) and the production of a gas flow, especially of an air flow (L), and wherein the gas flow, especially the air flow (L), through the layer of kilning material (D) is generated from a space (X) facing the layer of kilning material (D) in the tray (20) having at least one opening (21) to a space (Y) facing away from the layer of kilning material (D) in the tray (20).
