| Abstract: | Specific differential milling of amaranth (Amaranthus spp.) yields three different granulometric fractions, which are classified according to their composition and properties. They are a high-fiber fraction, a high-protein fraction and a high-starch semolina. The high-fiber fraction can be improved by pneumatic classification until a product with 63.9% insoluble fiber and 6.86 soluble fiber contents is obtained. |
