Problems with existing manufacturing methods
1.Problems in the manufacture of spray-dried powder using a concentrated solution
Spray-dried powder of 50% concentrate (about 40% solids) can be manufactured, but expensive porous dextrin must be used. Since it is necessary to stop, remove the adhering substances, and repeat the spray drying operation again, the work efficiency is very low and the work load of the operator is increased.
2. Problems with product changes such as product color
Since the fixation is repeatedly removed and spray-dried, the color of the product is not constant, and the taste itself changes.
Development of manufacturing method
Overview: First, a low-concentration Aronia powder is produced by spray drying, and secondarily, only a concentrate is coated with a fluidized bed on the low-concentration Aronia powder to produce a high-concentration Aronia powder.
1. Low-concentration aronia powder production
Spray drying of 40% concentrate (about 30% solids) / Preparation of aronia powder
2. Manufacture of high-concentration aronia powder
A fluidized bed coating with a concentrate of 50% (about 40%) / Preparation of Aronia granule powder
