Description
Summary:The kernel hardness is a significant characteristic. Whea t kernel hardness determines quality, flour yield, flour particle-size, water absorption and other quality characteristics of cereals. Th e final classification for wheat is kernel hardness. The aim of our research wa s to determine the kernel hardness with new static methods. To the static methods we used the Lioyd iOOO R Testing Machines. We determined the kernel hardness with the well-known and recognized method also. It wa s the Perten Single Kernel Characterization System (SKCS) 4100 device. Registered and widely used Hungarian wheat varieties were applied in the study. It wa s 11 different winter wheat varieties (7 of HRW W and 4 of SRWW). The samples were labelled with code number. Our aim was to compare these methods.
