A novel micro-scale method for analyzing wheat flour and dough properties was developed using an adapted rheometer, requiring less than 0.5 g of flour. The system enables inline kneading, rheological analysis, and protein network imaging (via CLSM) without interruptions. Results showed comparable dough development to traditional methods, with insights into gas retention and baking performance. This efficient method provides the wheat and bakery industries with powerful tools to predict flour quality and optimize processes.
