Question

Typical farinograph of wheat flour follows the sequence of-
(A). Arrival time
(B). Peak time
(C). Mixing tolerance index
(D). Departure time
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (A)-(B)-(C)-(D)
• B. (A)-(B)-(D)-(C)
• C. (B)-(A)-(D)-(C)
• D. (C)-(B)-(D)-(A)

Hint:

The farinograph helps assess dough strength and stability, essential for determining flour quality.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The correct sequence for the farinograph curve is as follows:
1. Arrival time (A) - the initial stage of mixing
2. Peak time (B) - when the dough reaches maximum consistency
3. Mixing tolerance index (C) - an indication of dough stability
4. Departure time (D) - when the dough begins to lose its strength
