Rice huller

In a hulling mill grains are processed, which before use ( eg consumption, pressing ) need to be peeled, because the husks are anchored firmly to the grain. Here, the grain falls during threshing from the husks - for example, oats, rice, millet, spelled and barley. Further processing is then partially identical to that in a flour mill.

History

Peldemühle is another term for a husking mill. Most so are certain types of mills ( windmills, water mills, motor mills ) for Pelden, ie peeling of rice or barley in northern Germany and the Netherlands meant. The Low German or Dutch verb Pelden is related to peel with the High German verb has the same meaning. Wind and water mills were as pure Peldemühlen with one or more Peldegängen ( in southern Germany: Gerbgängen ) or is combined as "mixed" with Pelde mills, grinding and / or shot transitions. In Peldegang specifically carved Peldesteine ​​running at a greater distance from each other so as not to crush the cereal grains. Peldewindmühlen were in northern Germany especially for Graupenherstellung spread, rice was preferred peeled in large rice mills motor. The Wittmunder Peldemühle from 1741, now a museum of local history, is Germany's oldest gallery Dutch windmill.

Technology

In a hulling mill

• Is peeled rice, if applicable polished (possibly glazed) and, depending on the desired product, even parboiled. In addition, rice flour is made.
• Is other grains (mainly oats, barley, spelled ) dehusked with subsequent production of groats, meal, grains and flakes (see also oatmeal ).
• Are also legumes, roots, tubers and nuts

Edited.

The previously used " lower disc sheller " ( Gerbgang ) was replaced completely in modern milling by rubber roller peeler peeler or impact. By using " Planauslesern " ( Tischauslesern or paddy Auslesern, originally developed for the readout of husked rice or oats from the core mixture) separated light and heavy material from one another. The dehulled grains can then be flattened directly on a Flockierstuhl or they are previously cut with a " drum groats Schneider " in coarse, medium or fine grits. This is mainly done with oats or barley grains.
