Introduction and Purpose: The desired quality flour production for bread production can be produced by blending flours of different wheat flours for the target end-product. For this purpose, to achieve the required dough qualities, less expensive other-class wheat flours are blended in various proportions with first-class wheat flours in the National Bread Wheat Acquisition Range. On the other hand, an essential step in ensuring flour quality and quantity is tempering, which is accomplished through adding water to the wheat grains before milling. This study aimed to identify the best blend ratios and combinations of other-class wheat for the most widely grown first-class wheats, Esperia and Rumeli, to produce bread flour with the appropriate quality using both classical and ultrasound short-term tempering.
Materials and Methods: In the study, KateA𝑥Nacibey rainfed conditions combination and Ahmetağa𝑥Ekiz irrigated conditions combination flours were blended at 20, 30, 40% to first-class Esperia and Rumeli wheat flours subjected to classical and ultrasound-assisted tempering. Physico- chemical, gluten aggregation and dough rheological properties were determined in 12 combination flours. Bread-making experiments were conducted on 8 prominent blends and control bread flour.
Results: Thirty minutes at 70 amplitude were the ideal parameters for ultrasound treatment, based on the CRS method. In comparison to classical tempering, farinograph stability was higher with ultrasound tempering (13.32 and 11.86 min). The alveograph resistance for ultrasound tempering was also higher than those for classical tempering (60.75 and 55.94 mm). The volume of the breads ranged from 430.0 to 460.0 ml. The results of the ultrasound short-term tempering of Paçal-22 were closest to the control bread volume (435.0 ml) at 437.50 ml.
Discussion and Conclusion: The bread volume of Paçal-22 (%40 Esperia) was reached with ultrasound application of Paçal-16 (%20 Esperia) and Paçal-4 (%20 Rumeli). Ultrasonic short-time tempering was found to be arecommended application for millers.
