  1. The Big Three • Corn • Feed Grain • Export • Processing • Wet Milling • Dry Milling • Wheat • Export • Flour • Soybeans • Export • Processing

  2. Corn Wet Milling Clean and Inspected Corn 100 % Steep Tanks Steepwater Steepwater Evaporation Condensed Fermented Extractives 3 % Germ Germ Separation Germ Germ Extraction Crude Corn Oil Corn Germ Meal Grinding Mills 26 % Corn Gluten Feed Washing Screens 5% Centrifugal Separators Corn Gluten Meal Starch washing and Hydro clones Starch and Sweeteners 2% Refining Loss 64%

  3. Corn Wet Milling Raw Material Inputs Production Outputs #2 Yellow Corn Corn Starch Corn Syrup HFCS Corn Sweetener Crude Corn Oil Dextrose Corn Gluten Meal Corn Gluten Feed

  4. Wet and Dry Cleaning Corn Corn Dry Milling 100 % 3% Germ Degerming Corn Oil Extraction Crude Corn Oil Reducing Rolls Reduce particle size Flaking Grits Throughstock Drying and Cooling 66% Sifter Brewers Grits Aspirator Air currents and sieves classify particles Grinding Sifter Corn Meal Corn Flour 29% Hominy Feed 2% Refining Loss

  5. Corn Dry Milling Raw Material Inputs Production Outputs #2 Corn Masa Flour Hominy Feed Corn Meal Crude Corn Oil Corn Grits

  6. Clean and Inspected Wheat 100 % Wheat Milling Separator Sticks & stones removed Bulk Magnet and Air Currents Iron, steel & Impurities removed Sifter Flour Bagged Tempering Water added to aid milling process 83% Purifier Air currents and sieves classify particles Entoleter Removes unsound wheat Middlings Reducing Rolls Reduce particle size further Grinding 15% First Break Passes corrugated rollers 2% Refining Loss

  7. Wheat Milling Raw Material Inputs Production Outputs Wheat Flour Wheat Millfeed (Middlings) Bags (historically)
