What you will learn
You will learn how to make a mill efficient. Understand the underlying principles of the flour milling process, machine design and plant operation. But this isn’t just theoretical training. You will spend two days in the fully operational Hal Ross Flour Mill at the university’s Department of Grain Science and Industry. There you will learn cleaning, conditioning and milling techniques. You have access to some of the latest milling machines for a close-up look at how they work. You will also learn to judge whether a milling operation is running well, covering everything from intake to the finished product.
