Hard Winter Wheat Kansas Intrastate Nursery Reports
Milling, breadmaking and dough-handling properties of hard winter
wheats entered in the Kansas Intrastate Nursery (KIN) are listed. Tested
samples were composites from multilocation trials. Data are reported in
three tables: Physical data, Chemical and Mixograph data, and Breadmaking
data. The following parameters are reported:
Line Cultivar name or experimental line number.
Testweight lbs/bushel
1000 kernel weight grams
kernel sizing % large (>2.92 mm diameter), medium (< 2.92 > 2.24 mm),
and small (< 2.24 mm) kernels.
SKWCS Single Kernel Wheat Classification System - average kernel
moisture (%), weight (mg) and diameter (mm).
Hardness hardness score from single kernel hardness tester

ash grain ash content (%)
protein grain protein content (%)
flour % flour yield (extraction) from milling

Mix Time Time, in minutes, to peak dough development
Tolerance resistance of dough to overmixing (0 = unsatisfactory,
7 = outstanding).
Breadmaking

proof height height of loaf (cm) after proofing
crumb grain internal loaf appearance; 0 = unsatisfactory,
6 = outstanding).

regression (loaf volume - 300) / protein content -3)
The data were obtained from the USDA Grain Marketing Research Laboratory,
Manhattan, Kansas. For additional information please contact O.K. Chung
