Comparison Against Competitors
Sample W (baking strength) G (swelling) P (Tenacity) L (Extensibility) Gluten Index
BECODUR GS Bio 362 29,5 80 160 95
Gluten Bio 1 283 23,7 76 109 86
Gluten Bio 2 285 25,1 74 123 50
Gluten Bio 3 267 24,6 72 120 69
  • BECODUR GS BIO gives the biggest W and the highest gluten index in the alveograph test. It therefore brings more strength but remains extensible since its G (swelling) is also high. It also shows a higher value for other parameters as P and L which means the structure can withstand a higher pressure and achieve a higher volume while baking.
  • BECODUR GS BIO showed also a good behavior in paste, good tolerance and higher volume in baking tests.
