    separate quality control of wet and dry „ state-of-the-art electronic measuring
    gluten as being used as a flour additive
    gains more and more importance.
    system Testing the
    The BRABENDER® Glutograph for testing
    the gluten quality has been completely
    „ easy and comfortable operation via
    touch-screen quality of wet

    with a completely new, compact design.

    Application
    The Glutograph-E represents the state of
    the art on the sector of gluten testing.
    The instrument enables

    „ reliable, objective, and reproducible


    measurement of the stretching and
    elastic properties of washed wet
    gluten and of dry gluten mixed with
    water to a dough
    „ testing of sample weights usually
    occurring in practice when gluten is
    washed out
    „ testing flour quality with regard to its
    suitability for noodle production
    „ recognition of drying and heat
    damage of flour and dry gluten
    State-of-the-art
    The new Glutograph-E
    measuring system
    and software The principle
    The measuring system of the Glutograph-E independent of shear angle and sample.
    consists of two parallel, round, corrugated Depending on your gluten quality, this
    plates mounted at a defined distance constant force (shear stress) stretches the
    opposite each other. The sample is put in- sample more or less, i.e. the lower plate is
    between these two plates. deflected more or less quickly against the
    The fixed distance and diameter of the upper one. This deflection (shear angle) is
    two plates provide for a defined sample recorded as a function of time.
    volume and a reproducible sample After having reached a certain deflection,
    geometry. the sample is released and recovers
    While the upper plate stands still, the according to its elasticity.
    lower one is turned with a constant force -

    The diagram
    The resulting diagram first shows the
    stretching process (rising curve). The
    falling curve in the second part represents
    the recovery of the sample.

    The shearing time (time up to reaching a


    certain preset deflection) is a measure of
    the stretching properties of the sample.
    The recovery of the sample after a certain
    time mirrors the elasticity.
