Abstract
In a hulling apparatus for producing hulled spelt seed including a lower course hulling device, and a method for producing hulled seed of a spelt grain, the hulling apparatus contains two disks, as rotor and stator, which are movable relative to each other, wherein at least one disk can be driven about a vertical rotation axis, and the disks enclose a flat annular working chamber between disk faces which face each other and are vertically spaced apart from each other, for receiving spelt products to be hulled, wherein at least one of the disk faces has a surface made of a plastic material, and the temperature of the apparatus can be controlled in the region of at least one of the disk faces.

A hulling apparatus for producing hulled spelt seed, comprising a lower course hulling device, containing two disks, as rotor and stator, which are movable relative to one another,
- wherein at least one disk can be driven about a vertical rotation axis, and the disks enclose a flat annular working chamber between disk faces which face each other and are vertically spaced apart from each other, for receiving spelt products to be hulled,
- wherein at least one of the disk faces has a surface made of a plastic material,
- wherein a temperature of the apparatus is controlled in a region of at least one of the disk faces to control a temperature of the spelt products to be hulled, such that the spelt products to be hulled remain at a predetermined temperature range during a hulling process for production of hulled spelt seed.
