Sifting percentages
Hi.
I am going to try to sift out the bran from a grain, after I have milled the grain in my Fidibus 21-grainmill, and I wonder how many percent of the wheat-kernel that consists of bran?
Is it something like 25% or something like that? Does it differ between different grains?
I am going to weigh the kernels before milling and sifting but I want to know how much weight the bran would consist of? So that I know when the bran is almost completely gone.
In other words, how do I know that I have sifted away all of the bran, by weighing the grain, after sifting?
