ISO 712-2 Compliant Cereal Moisture Testing with Brabender MT-CA Automated Oven Drying
The MT-CA moisture analyzer brings ISO 712-2 oven drying for cereals into a fast, automated workflow. Continuous airflow, integrated weighing, and software-based calculation deliver trusted results in about 60 minutes, helping labs speed release, reduce errors, and support compliance.
For cereal producers, millers, grain traders, and testing laboratories, moisture content is more than a routine number: it influences shelf life, storage stability, processing performance, and commercial acceptance. When results must stand up in quality control, customer audits, or regulatory discussions, a fast value alone is not enough. Users need a trusted reference method that is internationally recognized and practical in daily operation. This is where the MT-CA moisture analyzer stands out.
By measuring cereals and cereal products according to ISO 712-2:2024[1], the MT-CA combines the authority of a global standard with the convenience of an automated workflow. The method covers wheat, rice, barley, millet, rye, oats, triticale, sorghum, and milled products such as flour, semolina, and groats. Controlled drying at 130 °C to 133 °C with continuous airflow, integrated weighing, and software-supported calculation reduce operator influence and typically deliver stable moisture results in about 60 minutes.
This application report shows how the MT-CA turns standardized oven drying into a practical advantage for routine cereal moisture determination.
