High in protein
and starch
When fractionating the oat kernel into higher beta glucan concentrations, at different stages in the production process, we also get different kind of fine and very fine oat flours, with varying protein and fat contents. The flours are named for their Protein content.
The SWEOAT® flours are not similar to the traditional oat flours. Our flours are very fine milled and therefore of smaller particle size and lower water content. The heat treatment is giving longer shelf life and stabilization, minimizing the risk of rancidity and less microbiological activity, also thanks to the low moisture.
The flours are even so very fine grinded they may be used for colloidal oatmeal in cosmetics and they are ideal for instants, powders, beverages etc, as they give a good mouth feel, despite being a flour.
Our flours can also be offered with Baby Food quality, complying to the European regulations for baby food, most important securing that the cadmium level is below 0,04mg/kg. The flours offered as Baby Food quality are SWEOAT Flour P12 and SWEOAT Flour P19.
We are certified for Organic production - the product offered to is our SWEOAT Flour P12 and SWEOAT Flour P14 Wholemeal.
