Physicochemical quality of whole wheat flour from different processes is given in Table 1. For entire grain grinding, water loss of whole wheat flours were all significantly higher than those of wheat flour.
Whole wheat flour made by UM had the lowest moisture level.
This might be due to greater grinding strength used by UM resulting in more heat production.
There were no significant differences in the moisture content between wheat flour and whole
wheat flour obtained from bran recombining processes (p < 0.05).
Among different recombination processes, whole wheat flour made by EBR had lower moisture content than those made by HTBR, HMBR and UMBR (p < 0.05).
