Development of an Efficient Technological Scheme for Triticale Grain Processing into Graded Bread Flour

Abstract

Study results of the processing of initial samples of triticale grain into graded bread flour according to the designed reduced and developed technological schemes are presented. When processing Ramses grains, the output of the T-70 grade of triticale flour (with ash content of no more than 0.70%) from the central part of the endosperm was 40% according to the reduced technological scheme and 63% according to the developed technological scheme. The total output of flour according to the developed scheme in comparison with the reduced one increased by 3.4 and amounted to 75.5%. At the same time, the output of the low-ash T-60 grade flour according to GOST 34 142-2017 according to the developed scheme was 46%, while it was not possible to get a single percent of flour according to the reduced scheme. When processing Saur grade grain, the output of the T-70 grade triticale flour from the central part of the endosperm according to both the reduced scheme and the developed scheme amounted to 77.4%. When processed according to the developed scheme, the total output of flour increased by 0.6 and amounted to 78.0% in comparison with the reduced scheme. At the same time, according to the developed processing scheme, 42% of triticale flour was obtained with ash content of no more than 0.55%, while it was not possible to obtain a single percent of triticale flour with ash content of 0.55% according to the reduced scheme. It is established that processing of triticale grain according to the developed technological scheme with the use of sizing and sieve-purifying systems allows increasing the total output of flour by 0.6–3.4% in comparison with the reduced technological scheme.
