Best Answer

1) The type of flour used, bread flour has the highest protein content and therefore the highest gluten formation.

2) The amount of fat in the dough. Fat inhibits gluten formation.

3) Water. Gluten will absorb roughly double its weight in water. More than that hinders gluten formation.

4) The method of mixing. As a general rule, more kneading equals more gluten.

5) Leavening. Yeast fermentation stretches gluten and makes it stronger and more elastic.

6) Temperature. Gluten forms best between 70 and 80 degrees (21 to 27 Celsius)

7) Other additives. Salt aids in the formation of gluten. Bran inhibits gluten formation. Milk has an enzyme which inhibits gluten formation and should be scalded before being added to a bread dough.

Does barley malt contain wheat gluten?

No, there is gluten in barley. But interestingly, its different gluten to that in wheat. Current research on gluten intolerance (and research on beer brewing) is looking at using barley components (protease) to help in the digestion of irritant wheat glutens. Experiments in rats are looking promising but extension of that to humans could take a decade.
