Whole and quality grits yield of emmer wheat grain depending on endosperm consistency and water-heat treatment

The article is devoted to the determining of the effect of water-heat treatment regimes (moistening and softening) and hulling during the production of whole grits of emmer wheat with different vitreous endosperm. A comparative analysis of grits products yield was made, depending on the studied factors, and the optimal regimes are determined taking into account the culinary assessment of the finished product. During the production of whole grits of emmer wheat, the optimal to hull vitreous grain of moisture content 12.0–13.0%. The duration of hulling of such grain should be 40–120 s (grits yield 92–97%) to production high quality cereals and 120–140 s (grits yield 86–90%) – with very high.
