What is it?

Short-length oat fibre is a dietary fibre derived from the outer husk of oats. It is characterised by its shorter fibre strands, which differentiate it from longer or less finely milled oat fibres. This form of oat fibre is utilised in a wide range of food products for its beneficial properties and functional applications.

Appearance: Typically appears as a fine, off-white or light beige powder.

Functionalities

  • Texture Enhancement: Short-length oat fibre can improve the texture of food products, adding bulk and enhancing the mouthfeel. It can help create a smoother texture in products like baked goods, snacks, and dairy alternatives.
  • Moisture Retention: This type of fibre is effective at retaining moisture, which helps keep baked goods moist and fresh, extending their shelf life.
  • Caloric Reduction: By replacing some of the higher-calorie ingredients with oat fibre, food manufacturers can reduce the overall caloric content of their products.
  • Viscosity Control: Oat fibre contributes to the viscosity and thickness of food products such as soups, sauces, and dressings. It helps achieve the desired consistency without the need for additional thickeners.
  • Nutritional Enhancement: As a source of dietary fibre, oat fibre increases the fibre content of food products, which is beneficial for digestive health. It supports regular bowel movements and can aid in maintaining a healthy digestive system.
  • Clean Label Ingredient
  • Stabilisation: In products like yogurt, ice cream, and other dairy alternatives, short-length oat fibre helps stabilise the mixture, preventing separation and improving overall consistency.
