HB Produkte

German to English Tech/Engineering Food & Drink Flours & bakery products
Hello, this is from a wheat flour analysis and is mentioned there various times.

My translation of the source text:

The high Falling Number as well as the high number of Amylograph Units (AU) point towards a low enzymatic activity (alpha amylase activity) within the wheat flour.
Regarding the baking properties for **HB products**, a paler colour, reduced volume and a more compact pore structure must be expected.

Falling Number ICC Standard No. 107 / 1

Ideal value
Wheat flours 250 - 300

543 = not ideal; HB products = use long dough rests, cooler doughs and baking agents with higher enzyme activity

It is obviously some sort of bakery product, any suggestions what HB could stand for would be greatly appreciated.

ps: Contacted the client who didn't know either, but apparently the analysis was done in Switzerland.

Steffen: I agree, it would have been better. I was in a rush and the source text was a scanned document, so I thought I'd cut corners.

taylorreigne and urst: Thanks for giving it a shot, but none of the answers fit here. The client was going to clarify it with the lab people.
Steffen Walter Sep 4, 2007:
It would be useful to see the corresponding source text, instead of the translation.

hull-less barley products

quote : "Five registered cultivars of hull-less barley (HB) with regular or waxy starch were milled in a Quadrumat Jr. mill to obtain whole grain flour; pearled in a Satake mill (cultivar Condor only), and the pearled fractions examined by microscopy to determine true HB bran." ... ... "Roller-milled HB products offer the best potential for entry into the food market."
