From the tempering bins, the grain passes to an impact aspirator. This machine has a variable speed drive set to ensure a fairly severe scouring of the wheat against the body of the aspirator. It is important to operate the impact aspirator at a controlled speed : fast enough to effectively achieve its purpose but not so fast as to fragment the durum grains. The purpose of scouring is twofold : to dislodge and remove the germ from the berry; to scour off the outer skin, called beeswing, from the grain, and separate this material from the mass by aspiration, thereby reducing the microbial count of the grain.

CONT

En sortant des boisseaux de repos, le grain passe dans un aspirateur à percussion. Cette machine dispose d'un variateur de vitesse, qui est réglé de manière à effectuer une friction énergétique du blé contre les côtés de l'aspirateur. Il est important d'utiliser l'aspirateur à percussion à une vitesse assez rapide pour atteindre le but recherché, mais pas assez pour fragmenter les grains de blé. Le but de ce brossage énergique est double : déloger et enlever le germe de l'amande; décoller la membrane de son extérieure (soufflures) et la séparer de la masse par aspiration, réduisant ainsi la numération microbienne du grain.
