Abstract (en)
The method involves wetting the surface of a corn grain mixture by adding a wetting liquid to the mixture. The grains are simultaneously degerminated and abrasively dehulled over a thickness ranging between 0.2 and 0.3 millimeter. The wetting step and the degerminating and dehulling steps are subsequently performed with an intermediate time interval of less than 1 minute. The grains are graded and/or thinned and/or filtered, without drying.
