Whole grain protein concentrate
Product form
A free-flowing powder, with an expressive fraction due to its rich fiber content and partially denatured proteins.
Product smell
The smell of the product is relatively neutral with pleasant, lightly roasted notes. The smell varies depending on temperature — as the temperature rises, the product will develop a slightly acidic aroma as a result of the fermentation process.
Product taste
The product has a slightly acidic taste, similar to naturally fermented rye bread. The acidity is more pronounced at higher concentrations and temperatures.
Product appearance
The product is light beige due to the characteristic color of the raw material (grain) and the process by which it is obtained. The product’s beige colour is affected by the partial denaturation of proteins that takes place during the manufacturing process. The light colour is influenced by the size of the fraction — the finer the fraction, the lighter the powder looks. However, when the product is in contact with liquid, its colour darkens and the size of the fraction no longer matters.
Discolouration also occurs when the product comes into contact with other raw materials.
