Rheological flour analyses at the FinaAfric laboratory

Chopin Alveograph

Measures your flour's W, P, L and P/L before you decide on a corrector. FinaAfric runs this analysis in-house, with trial baking, before proposing a dosage.

The Alveograph shapes a dish of dough hydrated to a standard level, then inflates it as a bubble with air until it bursts. The recorded pressure/time curve gives the tenacity (P), the extensibility (L), the P/L ratio, the swelling index (G) and the deformation work (W). It is the tool that lets you read a flour before deciding on a corrector. FinaAfric runs these analyses in its laboratory, with comparative trial baking, before proposing a dosage.
