Selective removal of the bran layers from wheat kernels prior to tempering results in the recovery of specialty bran products consisting of the seed coat, nucellar and aledrone layers of the removed bran coat. The removed layers have a protein content of between 18-30% measured on a dry basis and are useful as ingredients in breakfast cereals, binders, breads and snack foods, premium feeds and rusk thereby resulting in value added products for the mill or selective reintroduction of bran layers to flour after, or during, further milling. |

In an apparatus for humidifying polished rice, a conveyor has a tubular housing which defines a predetermined transport path for the polished rice. The conveyor conveys the polished rice, while steering the same, along the transport path. A humidifier is arranged in association with the transport path for adding moisture to the polished rice conveyed along the transport path to humidify the polished rice. A blower is arranged in association with the transport path for causing air to flow therealong. A rice milling system comprises a rice polishing machine and the apparatus connected thereto. The rice polishing machine polishes brown rice to form the polished rice. Polishing of the brown rice to the polished rice raises temperature of the polished rice. The polished rice elevated in temperature is supplied to the housing of the apparatus. |

The method for the conditioning of crushed soya bean material for flocculation utilizes a fluidized bed installation with heat exchangers incorporated in a reaction chamber. The crushed bean material passes through the fluidized bed continuously, with a dwell time of 4 to 8 minutes, at a temperature of between 55.degree. to 75.degree. C. |

A grain scratcher-moisturizer apparatus has an outlet connected by a screw conveyor to the infeed of a steam flaker assembly to provide substantial savings in the cost of treating feed grain. The scratcher-moisturizer has two driven parallel horizontal cylindrical rolls having closely spaced spiral grooves in their surfaces for receiving the base of a saw blade so that the teeth of the blade extend outwardly and are canted in the direction of rotation of the roll. Individual pivotal metal deflectors are mounted adjacent a respective cylindrical roll and grain is fed onto the driven rolls which hurl it against the deflector which deflect the grain back toward the roll. Each deflector is pivotally mounted for adjustment toward or away from its associated roll and is of zig-zag shape as viewed from its end so that it presents a series of approximately perpendicular flat areas equal the length of and facing its respective roll with each flat area being approximately perpendicular to a separate tangent from the roll so that the grain reverberates between the roll and deflector as it passes downwardly through the apparatus. A liquid spray pipe applies moisture to the scratched grain prior to entry of the grain into the screw conveyor. |

A method of producing rice of superhigh gloss wherein rice grains which have been polished to a yield of below 96% with respect to brown rice are cooled below 25.degree. C. by supplying to the rice grains a current of cooling and humidifying air of a humidity capable of maintaining the rice grains at an equilibrium moisture content, and then the rice grains are polished while being humidified and exposed to an air current. An apparatus for producing rice of superhigh gloss comprising rice grain cooling and humidifying means, and rice polishing means connected to the rice grain cooling and humidifying means for polishing the rice grains by rubbing while humidifying and applying air current to the rice grains. |

A method for rapidly heat treating a cereal such as rice in at least two cyclones wherein the cereal is contacted for 10 to 15 seconds with hot gas at a temperature of 400.degree. to 600.degree. C. Substantially all the heat treatment occurs in the cyclones which provide conditions of extreme turbulence enabling the vaporization of water in the cereal to produce a substantially uniform microporous product. Quick cooking rice cookable in about six minutes may be produced very economically. |

This invention relates to methods and apparatus for processing grain, such as corn, into flour and dough useful in making foodstuff products, such as tacos, tortillas, corn chips, etc. In one embodiment, atmospheric pre-heating of the grain with consequent cracking of the hull is combined with the softening effects of a lime water spray to deliver partially cooled grain in a comparatively dry state to a mill for efficient pulverization, following which it is made into a dough which is finally cooked and formed into the desired end product. |

The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for perforating the shells or husks of whole kernel feed grains such as shelled corn, grain sorghum, millet and the like, without shattering the kernels or destroying the germ, so that the moisture content of the treated grain can be rapidly altered.The method comprises the steps of wetting the exterior of the kernels with water to partially plasticize the husk, treating the kernels so that the husks separate partially from the interior portion of the kernels in the form of blisters and then perforating the blisters. The treated kernels may then be subjected to other steps to attain a desired result.Such steps may comprise heating the kernels to dry the grain for storage, wetting the grain to increase its moisture content preliminary to feeding it to animals; wetting it with liquid food supplements, antibiotics, etc., wetting it preparatory to controlled fermentation of the grain and the like. |
