Sample A= 100% malted-sorghum flour; B= 90% malted-sorghum flour+10% soy flour; C= 80% malted-sorghum flour+20% soy flour; D= 70% malted-sorghum flour+30% soy flour; E= 60% malted-sorghum flour+40% soy flour; F= 100% wheat flour.
Peak viscosity = maximum viscosity developed during or after the heating portion of the test; Trough = minimum viscosity after the peak normally occurring after the commencement of the sample cooling; Breakdown = peak viscosity minus trough viscosity; Final viscosity = viscosity at the end of the test; Set back = final viscosity minus peak viscosity. Peak time = time at which the peak viscosity occurred.
