Whether it is marmalade or pizza, sauce or hummus, chocolate or fruit puree, most food products undergo a cooking step during their production process. Cooking is nothing more than applying heat to food, but there are different methods to do it. For instance, baking, frying, and roasting involve cooking food without using water, unlike boiling or steaming. Industrial cookers such as vacuum and pressure cookers, industrial fryers, industrial ovens, and industrial roasters focus on specialized applications that meet the different needs of the food industry by helping producers achieve a homogeneous cooking process.

Cooking

In NASA's early years, a research program was established on how to provide food for astronauts while in space. In fact, in the 1960s, nutrition bars were launched with a label called "Space Food Sticks" because they were designed to allow astronauts to eat them easily while wearing their helmets. Protein bar manufacturing equipment is used to mix ingredients, extrude the mixture at a set temperature, cool the product before cutting it to size, coating it, and allowing it to cool to prepare it for packaging.

Entry level cooker for cereal bar production

Cereal and grain bars are increasingly popular, both as snack foods and as functional foods using natural ingredients. Traditionally, a higher-quality softer bar has been difficult to produce economically in small-to-medium production environments. Additionally, standard machines have only been able to produce either moulded dry-grain based bars or extruded dried fruit paste-based bars, limiting production flexibility. A modern, purpose-designed machine that can address these issues is therefore an attractive proposition.


<h2>Flexible bar machine for grain or fruit paste-based products</h2>
The Bar 2 from DSC is a flexible entry-level machine for the production of extruded or moulded soft cereal bars.

For dry cereal mixes, the product is dosed onto a conveyor which passes it through a laminating roller to assert the initial thickness. A further laminating roller then produces the final product dimension.

For dried fruit pastes, two specially designed rollers shape the pre-mixed product into a fully adjustable extrusion.

For both product types the final stage is to cut to final product size. Cut dimensions can be selected by means of the built-in touchscreen control interface.

The HMI allows the creation and storage of multiple product recipes for easy recall, meaning simple one-person operation.

The whole machine has been designed to be simple to clean, with all product contacting surfaces easily accessible for hot water washdown.

In addition to the heated jacket, the MultiCook has an internal heated cone. This further reduces cooking times and increases productivity.

Available in two sizes to meet your requirements, MultiCook features frequency controlled speed of impellers to allow even delicate mixing to preserve fruit pieces. Teflon-coated scrapers improve mixing capability and heat transfer.

Industrial vacuum cooker

It took the scientific community almost 70 years to agree on the name ‘protein’ and discard the popular alternative, proteid. But protein powder processing still needed another five decades to be commercialized in the 1950s. Once extraction and purification could be industrialized, protein powder soon became a basic staple supplement.

Protein powder

After pasteurizing and homogenizing the raw milk, you need to ferment the milk with starter culture until solid curds and liquid whey is formed. Then, the liquid whey goes through a filtration and drying process to turn it into powder. Before sending it to packaging, flavorings are usually added.

Food

A beverage is any kind of liquid or drink, usually other than water, made for human consumption. Beverages are further classified into two categories: alcoholic beverages and non-alcoholic beverages. Alcoholic beverages refer to liquids that contain 1% to 75% of liquor and are produced by fermentation such as wine, beer, or distillation such as vodka, rum, tequila. Non-alcoholic beverages are drinks that don’t have any liquor such as tea, coffee, fruit juices, soft drinks, and carbonated beverages. They can be produced premix or postmix, depending on the setup of your production line.

Protein

With consumerism comes great responsibility. More and more are switching their diet towards vegan and vegetarian alternatives, varying from dairy to meat. As more plant-based meat technologies are being invented, the production is rising in popularity. Ever wondered which challenges come with that?

Plant-based meat

Chickpeas for pumping up your muscle!

If you are looking for a meat, dairy, or egg protein alternative, you can try out @ChickP protein. This plant-based protein powder is, as you have guessed, made out of chickpeas!

<a href="https://www.chickp-protein.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ChickP </a>protein powder contains 90 percent chickpea protein, which is the highest rate in the world so far. The protein used in ChickP’s protein powder is isolated from fibers, oils, and starches that can degrade quality. In this way, ChickP has achieved almost equivalent protein content to milk.

This powder is uniquely white - even whiter than many other plant-extracted proteins - so it can be easily modified. Also, due to its neutral flavor, smooth mouthfeel, and white color, this protein can be used in different types of foods, such as beverages, snacks, and cereals.

Try this innovative and nutritious chickpea protein in your plant-based food product!

Bakery production includes foods usually made from flour such as bread, biscuits, and cakes. Depending on the baked good you want to make, flour can be mixed with water or other ingredients producing a paste called dough or batter. The dough is then baked in the oven using dry heat. During baking, heat is transferred from the air to the dough, first on the surface and then in the center. Moisture and liquids escape through evaporation.

Bakery

Cereals are also defined as breakfast food made from roasted grain and typically eaten with milk or yogurt. Cereal grain is a small, hard, and dry seed, which mainly harvests for human or animal consumption, like wheat, maize, or rye. Processed from the edible components of the grains, breakfast cereals contain rich nutrients and usually serve as the main course during breakfast meals. Different cereal manufacturing equipment allow various options to appear on the market, ranging from cereals, granola, and muesli. Granola and muesli can be converted into cereal bars. The healthy, on-the-go snack bar shows a growing trend due to its nutrient content and convenience.

#Changemaker: white chlorella as your next protein source!

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.
