Development time refers to time until peak resistance.

Stability is the time during which the top edge of the farinograph trace is above the centre of the peak resistance.

Degree of softening is the difference in resistance between peak resistance and 12 min after peak resistance in Brabender units (BU).

§

The extensograph resistance value refers to maximum resistance in Brabender units (BU).

Extensibility refers to the distance stretched before breaking.
