BRABENDER GLUTOPEAK
The GlutoPeak®
process by
Brabender®
offers a quick, but
precise technical solution to describe
the functionality of flours, bruised grains,
baking mixes or vital gluten measuring
the aggregation behaviour of the gluten
component in a sample. The device first
separates the gluten, and then aggregates
it into a characteristic network before
destroying it with the rotation of its
mechanical measuring paddle. Time and
torque curve of the physics of the gluten
is recorded and displayed as a graph. The
time to reach the maximum point on
the curve, the peak, its height, and the
following decline of the curve provide
essential information on gluten quality.
