Wheat is milled to make flour for cereal, pasta and baked goods. The whole grain is a great source of vitamins, minerals, protein and starch. Fermented wheat is used to make beer and other alcoholic beverages. Wheat gluten is unique due to its ability to be elastic, bind water and form films that can be stabilized with heat. It is used in industrial applications to create adhesives, coatings, polymers and resins.
