Wheat is being milled without conditioning and the flour is unusually dark.

What is happening?

  • A.The endosperm is too tough to grind
  • B.The germ is being retained deliberately
  • C.The extraction rate has been reduced
  • D.Dry bran is shattering into the flour

Answer: D

Tempering toughens the bran so it comes off in flakes the purifiers can remove; without it the bran breaks up and follows the endosperm. The ash figure will have risen alongside the colour, and both point to the same cause.
