Test Mill
Our location at North Ryde in Sydney is a central site close to academic institutions and commercial industry grains and cereal business enterprises. The facilities at our North Ryde site include a commercial scale pilot mill specifically designed to mill multiple varieties of grain and non-grain products including spelt, rice, pulses, maize and wheat.
Included within the pilot mill is a test milling facility that is capable of evaluating a range of wheat varieties and trialling new grain processing technologies. Rosewood's commercial scale research mill has previously been benchmarked against a number of commercial mills in Australia and has been demonstrated to provide credible commercial milling information.
