Gentle Grinding to Preserve the Characteristic Spices are dried plant parts, for example seeds, fruits, roots, bark, berries, peel, stems or leaves. These are used in nutritionally insigniﬁcant amounts as food additives for ﬂavor and color or as preservatives. NETZSCH Flavor Protection Grinding When processing herbs and spices the highest priority is to preserve their characteristic properties as ﬂavor-, aroma- or color carriers. Some spices already have their characteristic properties when they are freshlyharvested. In this case the natural ﬂavors are completely enclosed by cell walls and...

SPECIAL FLOURS Grinding and Classifying with Higher Throughput Special ﬂours differ from normal ﬂour, which consists solely of wheat, either due to their composition or their intended use. Powdery products with a special character are also included in the area of bakery products. These can be either Micronized ﬂours, Flours with particular ﬁnenesses with a steep particle size distribution, Specially dried ﬂours and/or powders with a reduction of the residual moisture in the product to below 5 %, Flours or powders with an improved microbiological stability or Flours with modiﬁed protein...

Food Additives and Food Supplements with A large group of polysaccharides and proteins which have a high capacity for gelling are known as hydrocolloids. A large number of these originate from nature most of them from the plant world. However, hydrocolloids can also be obtained from algae, bacteria and animal sources. The extraction of hydrocolloids is carried out using several very different processes and often the products obtained are further modiﬁed in order to regulate certain properties. Hydrocolloids are used in the food industry as gelling- and thickening agents, stabilizers,...

many different Properties Application Example Gelatine Gelatine is a natural foodstuff. It is transparent has neither odor nor taste and is used for many applications. Gelatine consists up to 80 - 90% of protein. The remaining components are water and mineral salts. Gelatine is produced from collagen in a multistage manufacturing process. In the ﬁnal step the pulverization of extrudates is necessary. The throughputs obtained in this step depend greatly on the viscosity of the feed product. Final Fineness Application Example Cellulose and Cellulose Derivatives Before cellulose and cellulose...

Application Example Pectin Pectins are plant-based polysaccharides which can be found in all hard plant parts, for example stems, ﬂowers or leaves. Seen from a nutritional point of view pectins provide dietary ﬁber for humans, although they are used chieﬂy as gelling agents in the food industry. Pectins are essential ingredients of many products in the food- and pharma industries or are used in the manufacture of cosmetics.
