Wheat Grain Milling: Overview

Wheat grain milling is the process of converting whole wheat grains into flour, bran, and germ while ensuring high quality and consistency. This process is essential for producing products for baking, food processing, and industrial applications.

Raw Material

Wheat grains : Carefully selected for quality, moisture content, and purity.
Water : Used for conditioning the grains before milling.

Wheat Milling Process

1. Cleaning and Sorting : Wheat grains are cleaned to remove impurities like stones, dust, husks, and other foreign materials using sieves, air blowers, and magnets.
2. Conditioning/Tempering : Cleaned grains are tempered with water to soften the bran layer and toughen the endosperm, improving the separation during milling.
3. Grinding/Milling : Grains pass through roller mills that crush the wheat into smaller particles.
   The process separates the endosperm (used for flour) from bran and germ.
4. Sifting : Ground wheat is sifted through a series of sieves to separate fine flour from coarser particles.
5. Purification : Flour is purified to remove remaining bran or germ particles, ensuring a smooth and consistent product.
6. Packaging : Finished flour, bran, and wheat germ are packed in suitable bags for storage and distribution.
