Flour


Question:

What is an extraction rate?

Answer:

All flours are classified according to the percentage of wheat grain present. This is known as the extraction rate. Wholemeal flour contains the whole grain and is therefore a 100% extraction flour. Brown flour contains about 85% of the grain and white flour between 75-80% extraction.
