A method of determining the mass balance closure quantification of fiber of a sample includes using an extraction technique followed by analysis of non-saccharide soluble organics (solubles). In conjunction with traditional analyses of protein, fat, starch, and ash, this method accurately determines fiber by mass closure calculation. On pre and post processed grain materials the calculation is fiber=100proteinfatstarchashsolubles. The accurate determination of fiber determines the converted fraction for the generation of D3 RINS by the Environmental Protection Agency's in situ renewable fuels pathway.

Methods for producing a purified wheat embryo product are disclosed. In one embodiment, producing a purified wheat embryo product includes the steps of: accelerating a plurality of wheat berries toward an impact surface, impacting each of the plurality of wheat berries against the impact surface, dislodging at least some of the wheat embryos from the wheat berries in response to the impacting step such that the dislodged embryos are intact, and separating the dislodged wheat embryos from the bran and the endosperm to produce an intermediate purified wheat embryo product.

A dry process for the production of whole durum wheat semolina is described, wherein wheat caryopses (101) are subjected to decortication in order to remove the germ (107) and only the outermost layers of the pericarp (102) of the multilayer bran coating of said caryopses and the caryopses decorticated in this way are subjected to milling followed by sieving, selecting fractions having a particle size lower than or equal to 500 m, which form the aforementioned whole durum wheat semolina. The invention also refers to a whole durum wheat semolina obtained by the aforementioned process having a moisture content lower than or equal to 13%, a total fibre content between 8% and 13% and a protein content between 12% and 17%, and a whole-wheat pasta and a bakery product obtained using the aforementioned semolina.
