Course content



"Wheat flour is traded on the basis of agreed specifications. The methods of analysis used to test against these specifications include a range of sectorally specific tests (e.g. Hagberg Falling Number, Farinograph and Extensograph) as well as more general approaches such as the determination of protein and moisture content."
