Abstract
Milling quality wheat is milled by first removing germ and outer bran layers amounting to approximately 8-10% of the weight of the wheat in a pearling process. The pearled wheat is then milled in a conventional roller mill to produce flour or semolina. Unexpectedly high yields have been observed, and the process yields a milled product which is unusually high in aleurone cell wall fragments for a given ash content.
