We investigated the extensional properties of wheat flour dough on the Filament Stretching Rheometer (FISER), in which the sample approaches uniform uni-axial extension flow at a constant strain rate over a large portion of the experiment, thereby allowing us to directly probe the transient material function characterizing the behavior of dough in extension. The large dynamic range of this Rheometer permitted us to investigate the visco-elastic nature of the dough well into the baking/proofing range. Special experimental protocols and modifications to the rheometer fixtures were designed and built to overcome problems in sample preparation. Parameters such as water content, base flour type and mixing conditions were varied to determine their respective effects on the extensional properties. Ultimately we would like to develop a constitutive equation describing the evolution of stress during extension and arrive at a model for the stability against rupture in these doughs.
