 Modified flours and starches
These products, which are also called swelling flours or swelling starch, are especially 
characterized by their modified water absorption and solubility properties. The viscosity 
of flour-(starch-)and-water suspensions is adjusted to suit customers’ specific needs. 
Suitable thermal or mechanical energy input into a mixer and extruder allows 
products to be made which are soluble in cold or hot water and which have a wide range 
of viscosities. Modified flours and starches are applied in the following products:
