[Binburnt] kernels resemble fireburnt kernels in colour; however, in cross-section, the binburnt kernel maintains its dense structure and appears smooth and glossy, unlike a fireburnt kernel, which looks like charcoal in cross-section, has numerous air holes, and crumbles easily under pressure; binburnt kernels are caused by gradual heating in storage and have not been exposed to temperatures approaching ignition; the weight of a binburnt kernel is similar to that of a sound kernel of comparable size(Official Grain Grading Guide). 2, record 1, English, - binburnt%20kernel

[La] couleur des grains brûlés en entreposage est semblable à celle des grains brûlés; une coupe transversale d'un grain brûlé en entreposage présente une paroi lisse et luisante; or, celle d'un grain brûlé ressemble à du charbon et s'effrite facilement sous pression; les grains brûlés en entreposage résultent de l'échauffement graduel durant l'entreposage mais ils n'ont pas été exposés à des températures assez élevées pour causer l'allumage; le poids d'un grain brûlé en entreposage est semblable à celui d'un grain sain de calibre analogue (Guide officiel du classement des grains). 2, record 1, French, - grain%20br%C3%BBl%C3%A9%20en%20entreposage
