Mixolab

Mixolab What is a Mixolab? The mixolab is dough testing equipment used to assess the baking quality and performance of hydrated cereal flours. It's used to characterize the rheological behavior and pasting properties of flour/water doughs and starch/water mixtures when subjected to the simultaneous action of mixing and heat transfer (changes in [...]

Farinograph

Farinograph What is a Farinograph? The farinograph is a tool to assess baking qualities and performance of wheat flour doughs. It records the resistance to deformation, or the consistency of dough mixed from flour and water. To millers and bakers, farinographs are essential for: Adjusting dough mixing parameters: absorption, time, pre-hydration ratio [...]

Rheology

Dough rheology is affected by water absorption as seen in this Farinograph. Rheology What is Rheology? Rheology is the study of how liquid, solid or semi-solid materials deform or flow, when a force or stress is applied to them. The study of rheology involves stress and strain measurement. Strain is [...]
