In order to generate the quality data in this bulletin, Cigi (Canadian International Grains Institute)
collaborated with the following grain companies: Cargill, CWB, Louis Dreyfus, Paterson GlobalFoods,
Richardson International, SWT and Viterra. Cigi received regional samples of the 2014 western Cana-
dian wheat crop corresponding to the seven regions identified in the map above. From these a western
prairie composite was created from the PR, NW, SW and SC-W regions and an eastern prairie compos-
ite was created from the NE, SC-E and E regional samples for CWRS. Prairie composites were created
for CWAD and CPSR.

Wheat Quality Evaluation Methods
All results are corrected to a 13.5% moisture basis (mb) for wheat and a 14.0% mb for flour or semolina
unless otherwise specified. AACCI Methods are from the American Association of Cereal Chemists Inter-
national: Approved Methods of Analysis, 11th Edition.

COLOUR – SPAGHETTI CIGI INTERNAL METHOD
Spaghetti strands are mounted on standard white cardboard (7.5 cm x 7.5 cm) using double-sided tape
and the colour is measured using the Minolta CR-310 colorimeter with a D65 illuminant. The following
parameters are measured: L* is a measure of darkness (0) to lightness (100); a* is a measure of greenness
(-) to redness (+); b* is a measure of blueness (-) to yellowness (+).

NOODLE PROCESSING – YELLOW ALKALINE CIGI INTERNAL METHOD
Flour is processed into fresh yellow alkaline noodles (YAN) using an Ohtake laboratory noodle machine.
Salt (NaCl; 1% based on flour weight) and alkaline salts (K2CO3:Na2CO3 = 6:4 w/w: 1.3% based on flour
weight) are dissolved in water and added to flour at a constant water absorption (34%, 14% mb, mass
balanced). The dough is mixed (100 rpm, 10 min) and then rested (15 min). Sheeting begins with an
initial gap setting of 3.5 mm and then the dough sheet is folded and sheeted again and rested (30 min).
The dough sheet is then subjected to four reduction passes (2.0, 1.5, 1.2, and 1.0 mm). A section (100
cm) is cut from the noodle sheet for colour (see Colour – Noodle for details). The remaining dough is
sheeted a final time before cutting. The final gap setting is adjusted for each sample to ensure the result-
ing noodle strands have a thickness of 1.4 mm. Noodle strands are cut using a No. 10 or No. 20 cutter to
produce noodles with a width of 3.0 or 1.5 mm, respectively.
