1) Cleaning the com
2) Soaking or steeping the corn for a prescribed period of time
3) Applying steam to the corn before rolling
4) The specially conditioned corn is then rolled between 2 large rollers
Flat rolled steam flaking disrupts the cellular structure of the corn kernels (gelatinization) and increases sites
for microbial attachments resulting in improved starch (carbohydrate) digestion in the rumen. In simple terms,
the cow uses more of the nutrients because the rumen bugs can get to them and much less corn nutrient*
goes out in the manure.
