DISPERSING FLAVOURS IN ICE CREAM MANUFACTURING

 

Background

One process in the manufacture of ice cream is the incorporation of flavors such as fudge, caramel, peanut butter, and maple syrup into the ice cream base. This requires a mixer to disperse and blend very viscous ingredients (up to 500,000 centipoises) into a low viscosity base.

Quadro Ytron Performance

The Y Jet Mixer incorporates a specially designed rotor/stator mixing head to deliver a pure axial flow pattern replacing the radial action generated by conventional open impeller design agitators. The Y Jet Mixer is capable of producing a lump and air free flavor dispersion of ingredients such as fudge and caramel in seconds.

Summary

The Ytron equipment disperses viscous flavors into ice cream base quicker, more consistently, and to a better quality than traditional methods. The Ytron equipment's versatility, cleanability, simplicity, and low maintenance make it ideal for use in the Food and related industries.
