METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING GRAIN FLAKES Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A23L7/117 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: method for producing a flaky grain product includes formation of dough suitable for culinary processing of dough from cereals, feeding the dough through a plurality of spaced geometric openings forming a plurality of dough flows, merging the plurality of flows to form a single dough extrudate, cutting the dough extrudate into separate circles of predetermined thickness and drying the dough circles with the formation of individual twisted corn flakes, wherein the formation includes generating the body of the flakes, having a plurality of spaced interconnected surface roughnesses. The twisted flaky grain product has a body with a plurality of spaced interconnected surface roughnesses. A device for forming grain flakes, comprising: a processing device for loading, kneading and preparing a plurality of dough ingredients from cereals for forming dough suitable for culinary processing, an extrusion die located near the processing device, comprising the first section with the plurality of spaced geometric openings to form a plurality of dough flows, and the second section forming a convergence area in which the plurality of dough flows is merged to form a single dough extrudate, a cutting head near the extrusion die for cutting the dough extrudate into individual slices of predetermined thickness, and a drying device for forming individual twisted grain flakes of dough circles.

EFFECT: flaky grain product has twisted dough with the thickness in the range of the order of 0,1-3 mm, with a plurality of spaced interconnected surface roughnesses.
