INSTANT PRODUCT FOR BEVERAGE PRODUCTION Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A23F5/00 A23F5/44 A23C11/00 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: inventions group relates to food industry. One performs provision of a porous base powder consisting of macro-particles with porosity equal to at least 45% and pores diameter value D50 equal to less than 80 mcm. The particles are dried till moisture content is equal to 1 - 7 wt % in conversion to the total weight of the particles before agglomeration. The said powder layer is agglomerated with simultaneous forced gas passing through the layer equal to 2 - 50 mm to produce an agglomerated flat cake. The rate of gas passing through the layer is equal to 0.01 m/s to 5 m/s. The porous base powder is agglomerated during 2 sec - 600 sec at a temperature 30-50°C higher than the base powder layer glass transition temperature. The agglomerated flat cake is powdered after agglomeration.

EFFECT: inventions group ensures a product for beverage manufacture having good foaming properties and/or dissolution properties.
