Rice (Rough)
|
Specification |
Rough Rice
Rough rice is used to describe the rice as it comes from the field after harvest.
The rice has been threshed and each grain is separate. The grain of rice has a hard
husk protecting the kernel inside. The husk (or hull) that covers rice is much thicker
and tougher than most cereal grain husks. Rough rice is also called Paddy rice.
By weight, the composition of rough rice is approximately: 22% husk (including about
2% trash), 10% bran, and 68% rice (2% of the rice are very small pieces, brewers
rice, and fines). The rice portion can have varying percentages of broken kernels.
A typical milling yield in California for medium grain would be described as 54/68.
54% brokens and 68% total. (14% brokens) rough rice is not as dense as milled rice
and usually weighs about 37 lbs per cubic ft. Brown rice, milled rice, and brokens
weigh about 52 lbs per cubic ft.
