Whole-wheat durum flour -Nutritious; -Healthy benefits. Whole-wheat durum flour Whole-wheat pasta -Milling & flour properties; -Direct grinding/ reconstitution; -Genotype selection. Whole-wheat durum flour milling -Grinding each portion; -Mill type. INTRODUCTION
Milling techniques is the most concern in whole-wheat milling that it determines particle size distribution of whole-wheat flour. Excessive grinding -Damages to starch granule, protein, and unsaturated fatty acids under heat generation (Prabhasankar and Rao, 2001); -is destructive on water binding ability and dough network; -All above results in high amylose leaching and cooking loss. Prabhasankar, P., and Rao, P.H Effect of different milling methods on chemical composition of whole wheat flour. Eur. J. Food Res. Technol. 213: INTRODUCTION
Retsch Mill (ZM 200, Retsch, Germany) -Feeding -Feeding capacity: 2-4 kg; -Grinding -Impact and shear; -Cooling part -Air stream cools flour. INTRODUCTION
OBJECTIVES To determine milling configuration of whole-wheat durum flour on a centrifugal mill which to have similar fineness as commercial whole-wheat flours. To evaluate whole-wheat pasta quality using whole-wheat durum flour on different milling configurations.
WHOLE-WHEAT FLOUR MILLING Materials -Bulk of durum samples (ND, 2012). Methods - Milling Screen Aperture: 250, 500, 1,000 µm; -Rotor speed: 6,000, 9,000, 12,000, 15,000, 18,000 rpm; -Grain moisture: 12%. Test Weight (lb/bu) kernel weight(g) Moisture (%) Protein (%) kernel size (%) LargeMediumSmall
Quality Parameters -Flour and mill temperature: thermometer (TN408LC, Metris, NJ); -Flour moisture: AACCI Method ; -Flour starch damage: AACCI Method ; -Flour color: CIE lightness (CR310, Minolta, NJ); -Flour particle size distribution: Retsch sieve vibratory shaker (Retsch, Germany).
