Introduction
The behaviour of dough is dependent on numerous parameters. Some of these parameters, such as water
absorption, dough development time, and kneading stability, are linked to the quality and quantity of
the proteins, while other parameters, such as gelatinization, gelling stability, and retrogradation, are
linked to the properties of the starch.
®1)
The Mixolab measures the torque between two mixing arms during kneading while varying the in-
bowl temperature, making it possible to gain in-depth information on samples and thus gain a better
understanding of the characteristics of tested wheat or flours.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17718:2013(E)
Wholemeal and flour from wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) —
Determination of rheological behaviour as a function of
mixing and temperature increase
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the determination of rheological behaviour as a function of
mixing and temperature increase. It is applicable to all wholemeal and flour samples from industrial or
laboratory milling of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).
[5]
NOTE Wheat can be milled in the laboratory according to the methods described in ISO 27971 or in BIPEA
[7]
guidance document BY.102.D.9302.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
water absorption
volume of water required to obtain a dough with a maximum consistency of (1,10 ± 0,05) Nm
Note 1 to entry: Water absorption is expressed in millilitres per 100 g of flour with a moisture content of 14 %
mass fraction.
3.2
time T1
time required for the dough to reach the target consistency C1 of (1,10 ± 0,05) Nm
Note 1 to entry: Development time is expressed in minutes.
3.3
stability
calculated time during which the dough achieves a consistency higher than C1 – 11 % × C1
4 Principle
Dough behaviour is determined as it is subjected to a combined kneading and temperature treatment
during a constant temperature phase, followed by a heating phase, then held at high temperature,
and subsequently cooled. Water is added to flour to achieve a maximum dough consistency of (1,10 ±
0,05) Nm during the first constant temperature phase.
The dough is first kneaded between two mixing arms rotating in opposite directions at 80 r/min, at
a starting temperature of 30 °C. The torque that the dough creates between the two mixing arms is
recorded. Kneading then continues while temperature is increased to 90 °C at a rate of 4 °C/min. The

ISO 17718:2013(E)

temperature is then held at a controlled 90 °C for 15 min. The dough mixer is then cooled at a rate of
4 °C/min to a temperature of 50 °C.
Dough consistency, like temperature, is recorded throughout the test. The results provide information
on gluten strength, starch gelatinization and retrogradation, enzyme activity, and all the interactions
taking place between dough components throughout the process.

8.5.4.2 Parameters giving information on dough behaviour
C2 is the minimum consistency obtained during curve development and corresponds to the lowest point
on the curve after C1, when the temperature applied to the bowl is on the increase.
C3 is the maximum consistency obtained after starch gelatinization and corresponds to the peak
consistency value obtained after C2, or consistency value at the end of 90 °C phase if there is no peak. C3
is related to starch granules swelling under the effect of the heat.
C4 is the minimum consistency obtained after starch gelatinization and corresponds to the drop in
consistency after C3 during the kneading period at 90 °C. This drop can only be calculated if it reaches
89 % of the C3 value.
C5 is the final consistency of the dough and corresponds to the dough consistency at the end of the test,
after the cooling phase.
Stability corresponds to the calculated time during the dough maintains a consistency higher than
C1 − 11 % × C1.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies
casting a vote.

Introduction
The behaviour of dough is dependent on numerous parameters. Some of these parameters, such as water
absorption, dough development time, and kneading stability, are linked to the quality and quantity of
the proteins, while other parameters, such as gelatinization, gelling stability, and retrogradation, are
linked to the properties of the starch.
®1)
The Mixolab measures the torque between two mixing arms during kneading while varying the in-
bowl temperature, making it possible to gain in-depth information on samples and thus gain a better
understanding of the characteristics of tested wheat or flours.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17718:2013(E)
Wholemeal and flour from wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) —
Determination of rheological behaviour as a function of
mixing and temperature increase
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the determination of rheological behaviour as a function of
mixing and temperature increase. It is applicable to all wholemeal and flour samples from industrial or
laboratory milling of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).
[5]
NOTE Wheat can be milled in the laboratory according to the methods described in ISO 27971 or in BIPEA
[7]
guidance document BY.102.D.9302.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
water absorption
volume of water required to obtain a dough with a maximum consistency of (1,10 ± 0,05) Nm
Note 1 to entry: Water absorption is expressed in millilitres per 100 g of flour with a moisture content of 14 %
mass fraction.
3.2
time T1
time required for the dough to reach the target consistency C1 of (1,10 ± 0,05) Nm
Note 1 to entry: Development time is expressed in minutes.
3.3
stability
calculated time during which the dough achieves a consistency higher than C1 – 11 % × C1
4 Principle
Dough behaviour is determined as it is subjected to a combined kneading and temperature treatment
during a constant temperature phase, followed by a heating phase, then held at high temperature,
and subsequently cooled. Water is added to flour to achieve a maximum dough consistency of (1,10 ±
0,05) Nm during the first constant temperature phase.
The dough is first kneaded between two mixing arms rotating in opposite directions at 80 r/min, at
a starting temperature of 30 °C. The torque that the dough creates between the two mixing arms is
recorded. Kneading then continues while temperature is increased to 90 °C at a rate of 4 °C/min. The

temperature is then held at a controlled 90 °C for 15 min. The dough mixer is then cooled at a rate of
4 °C/min to a temperature of 50 °C.
Dough consistency, like temperature, is recorded throughout the test. The results provide information
on gluten strength, starch gelatinization and retrogradation, enzyme activity, and all the interactions
taking place between dough components throughout the process.

8.5.4.2 Parameters giving information on dough behaviour
C2 is the minimum consistency obtained during curve development and corresponds to the lowest point
on the curve after C1, when the temperature applied to the bowl is on the increase.
C3 is the maximum consistency obtained after starch gelatinization and corresponds to the peak
consistency value obtained after C2, or consistency value at the end of 90 °C phase if there is no peak. C3
is related to starch granules swelling under the effect of the heat.
C4 is the minimum consistency obtained after starch gelatinization and corresponds to the drop in
consistency after C3 during the kneading period at 90 °C. This drop can only be calculated if it reaches
89 % of the C3 value.
C5 is the final consistency of the dough and corresponds to the dough consistency at the end of the test,
after the cooling phase.
Stability corresponds to the calculated time during the dough maintains a consistency higher than
C1 − 11 % × C1.
