Gluten Washer: Isolating the Key to Baking Performance
The Gluten Washer is a phenomenal product which is fully dedicated for accuracy and it also does the important primary step in the gluten evaluation, which is, the total and continuous removal of the wet gluten mass from the sample of a flour used in the machine.
With the help of automation of kneading and washing methods, it removes the high variability and time wastage which is normal in the manual process.
This wonderful tool is the backbone of every facility that needs a precise measure of the wet gluten content to examine the quality of protein and ultimate baking potential of the grain which is poured-in or the processed flour.
How it Works?
- A flour sample which is accurately measured in weight is combined with a saline solution in the washing unit.
- This gives initiation at the stage when the dough is being formed.
- In this phenomenal instrument a unique dual sieve and shaking mechanism is used for the simulation of the kneading action.
- Also a constant and regulated flow of washing mixture is applied at the same time.
- With the help of this method the starch and soluble parts are wiped away completely.
- The end result is a tidy, clean, cohesive bulk of wet gluten, which is ready for a subsequent use for weighing or processing through a centrifuge.
- The automatic timing and flow makes sure that the maximum yield of gluten, its purity and repeatable results are achieved.
Principles Which Makes It Work
- The process is dependent on how hydrated and separated the gluten network is.
- The saline solution is very useful when it comes to allowing glutenin and gliadin proteins to hydrate and bind together.
- This process of linking develops a strong, sticky, viscoelastic network which is known as gluten.
- The washing action uses the principle of differential solubility.
- The starches and proteins which are soluble to water are wiped away.
- The solid and non-soluble gluten bulk is kept on a refined screen, which helps in accomplishment of physical separation for evaluation.
