Abstract:
Disclosed are nutritional powders and related methods for providing a reconstituted liquid nutritional product with an enhanced air entrainment profile. In certain exemplary embodiments, the nutritional powders and related methods provide reconstituted liquid nutritional products with a specified air entrainment.
Abstract:
A pod (10) for preparation of a nutritional liquid composition. The pod (10) includes a nutritional liquid concentrate (20) and at least one nozzle (12) or diffuser for fluid introduction to the nutritional liquid concentrate (20). The nutritional liquid concentrate (20) is hermetically sealed within the pod (10). The nozzle (12) is arranged to diffuse a flow of fluid in the pod (10) prior to contact with the nutritional liquid concentrate (20).
Abstract:
A nutritional powder pod for use in a beverage production machine is disclosed herein. The nutritional powder is prepared by an extrusion process. Also disclosed are processes for preparing a nutritional powder pod suitable for use in a beverage production machine. These processes include preparation of the nutritional powder by a process that includes extrusion.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for processing a composition in a pod to form a food product or beverage fit for oral consumption involve the controlled introduction of various fluids, such as hot and cold water, into the pod to facilitate processing of the composition.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are nutritional powder pods, and their methods of making and using with beverage production machine. Certain aspects of disclosure include nutritional powders with certain properties (e.g., volume flowability, reconstitution time, reconstitution yield, mean particle size, rate of reconstitution, moisture content, surface area, non-circularity (
Abstract:
A nutritional powder pod suitable for use in a beverage production machine and methods of manufacturing and using the same are provided. The nutritional powder pod includes a pod containing a nutritional powder. The nutritional powder includes a carbohydrate and may include a protein, a fat, or both a protein and a fat. At least about 5 wt% of the carbohydrate in the nutritional powder is dry blended into the final nutritional powder.
Abstract:
Nutritional powders pods, generally in individual servings, suitable for use in beverage production machines are presented. The nutritional powder pods comprise pods containing a nutritional powder. The nutritional powder contained in the pods has specific characteristics, such as particle size, particle porosity, and powder density, which results in good reconstitution of the powder when it is reconstituted into a liquid product by a beverage production machine.
