NIR flour analysis for millers and bakers — measure moisture, protein, and ash in about 30 seconds, from incoming wheat to finished flour. Phoenix 5000 NIR Flour Analyzer The Phoenix 5000 is a near-infrared (NIR) flour analyzer that measures moisture, protein, and ash in about 30 seconds — with no reagents and no sample preparation. Built for the pace of a working mill, it lets millers and bakers analyze incoming wheat, in-process stock, and finished flour on a single instrument. Because NIR flour analysis returns results in seconds instead of hours, your team can adjust milling in real time rather than waiting on the lab — tightening moisture and ash control, holding finished flour to spec, and protecting yield. Every test runs on the same Phoenix 5000, from wheat receiving to the final blend. Download Brochure Request Information How Flour Mills Use NIR Analysis The Phoenix 5000 NIR analyzer brings precision to every stage of flour milling, letting you analyze incoming wheat, in-process stock, and finished flour on a single instrument. Each scan measures moisture, protein, and ash in about 30 seconds — with no reagents and no sample prep — giving millers the real-time data they need to control quality, hold product to spec, and protect yield. The Phoenix 5000 helps flour mills tighten quality control across four key stages of milling: Receiving & Blending Grade incoming wheat by moisture and protein Blend wheats to a grist that meets spec Tempering Confirm target moisture before milling Optimize yield and milling speed Milling Monitor ash and protein on flour streams Catch sieve breaks before ash spikes Finished Product Confirm finished flour to spec at outloading Cut lab turnaround and cost What the Phoenix NIR 5000 Measures Moisture Track moisture from wheat tempering through finished flour to maximize yield, protect shelf life, and keep product within milling spec. Protein Verify protein to match flour to its end use — bread, all-purpose, or cake — and guide wheat purchasing and blending decisions. Ash Measure ash to monitor extraction rate and flour grade, confirming how much bran carries through and keeping refinement consistent. Flour Ash Analysis in Seconds not Hours In flour milling, ash is the classic measure of how cleanly endosperm is separated from bran — the number that defines flour grade and extraction. Measuring it the traditional way is slow. The Phoenix 5000 gives it to you in one scan. Traditional Ash Testing Sample incinerated in a muffle furnace at high heat Hours per sample to complete Destroys the sample; only mineral ash remains Depends on analyst skill and exact weighing Results arrive long after the mill has moved on Phoenix 5000 NIR Ash from a single scan in about 30 seconds Non-destructive — the sample stays intact Same scan also returns moisture and protein Precision comparable to routine lab testing Fast enough to adjust extraction while it matters Hours → ~30 seconds NIR works for ash because it senses exactly what ash testing is really after — the trace bran carried into the endosperm. That makes it accurate enough to stand in for furnace testing in routine quality control, while delivering results in time to act. For ash on your specific products, describe your application and an NIR specialist will follow up.
