From Grain to Table: Comprehensive Flour & Dough Analysis

Flour quality, water adsorption, and the resulting dough need to be characterized with a range of standardized analytical methodologies in order to ensure consistent, high-quality baked goods. This webinar introduces the industry-standard solutions for characterizing traditional wheat flour, gluten-free flours and their resulting doughs. Specific methods that will be described include particle size, water adsorption, rheological properties, oxidation stability, and sample preparation for heavy metal analysis for food safety testing.
