Oats are finely ground to produce raw oat flour in the same way as wheat grains are processed into flour. First, the kernels are cleaned by a precleaner with an oscillating screen. The hull is then crushed, leaving most of the bran and germ. The resulting grain is ground into fine oat flour by a roller mill, burr mill, or hammer mill. 2, record 1, English, - oat%20flour
