STATEMENT OF WORK

Background A new farinograph instrument is needed to replace an older model that is no longer supported by the manufacturer. The old Farinograph has been used for 15+ years and the accuracy of this old Farinograph is in question, a new updated instrument is needed. If it becomes inoperable, we will be unable to perform critical evaluation required to fulfill an objective in our project plan.

Objectives Purchase of a Brabender Farinograph for the Grain Quality and Structure Research Unit to be installed in building 1 at CGAHR located at 1515 College Avenue, Manhattan, KS 66502.

Scope Contractor will provide a Brabender Farinograph

Tasks or Requirements Farinograph The farinograph is a physical dough-testing instrument used in the evaluation of breeding lines from public hard winter wheat breeders and stakeholders for effectively developing new hard winter wheat varieties. It is a torque-measuring device, recording dough mixer. The dough is subjected to prolonged mixing at a constant temperature, the resistance of the dough to mixing is recorded as a curve on a computerized output chart.
