Torrfied/flaked wheat

[RugenBrau]

Can I substitute torrified wheat for flaked wheat?

Yeah. They're both unmalted wheat that have been heat treated to make the starches more easily accessible to enzymes. I haven't seen articles or anyone post about the differences in flavor/mouthfeel/protien contribution between the two, but I'm sure there are some even if they aren't noticeable to a palate-in-training like mine. I've used both just fine.

Torrefied wheat needs to be milled, though, so keep that in mind.

Thanks..My LHBS doesn't carry flaked wheat and I have torrified wheat/ I figured it could be interchanged but just wanted to make sure
