Food and Beverage
The particle size distribution testing of the food and beverage industry provides necessary data for improving quality and production efficiency.Therefore, particle size analyzer plays an important role in particle size analysis of food and beverage industry. Bettersize laser particle size analyzer has been widely used in the food and beverage industry for its stable performance, high repeatability and accuracy in particle size measurement.
One example where tight particle size control is required is in the manufacture of chocolate. In the first stage, the nibs are ground into a thick paste called the chocolate liquor. The size of the particles in the chocolate mass is now about 100 microns. To avoid a grainy taste in the finished chocolate, another grinding takes place to reduce the particle size to about 18 microns as the tongue can sense grains of 18 microns or larger. If cocoa powder is being made, the chocolate liquor is further processed into pressed cake, and cocoa butter produced. .The chocolate liquor or mass is put into hydraulic presses under extremely high pressure to drain off the clear, golden liquid cocoa butter. The press cake that is left is cooled, pulverized and sifted into cocoa powder. At this stage the chocolate liquor and other ingredients are kneaded together according to the kind and quality of the chocolate being made. The cocoa liquor is mixed with cocoa butter and sugar and this is further refined by reducing the particle size of the added milk powder solids and sugar down to the desired fineness. The Cocoa powder or 'mass' is blended back with the cocoa butter (added to promote better mouth feel and reduce the viscosity) and liquor in varying quantities to make different types of chocolate. Lecithin, an emulsifier, which is much cheaper than cocoa butter $2577/ton (£1,577/ton) is also used to reduce the viscosity of chocolate and so reduces the amount of extra cocoa butter that must be added.
No matter which solid, liquid or emulsion you use, the Bettersize particle size and particle shape analysis system can help you to:
● Rapidly test the particle size and particle shape of new formulations, and participate in new product development
● Optimize the powdering and pelleting process
● Control production and ensure the consistency of ingredients
● Participate in quality control and improve productivity and throughput

Bettersizer ST
The Bettersizer 2600 utilizes this laser diffraction technology. There are 92 photoelectric detectors to convert light signals from the scattering spectrum to electrical signals, which are transmitted into an intelligent software. By implementing the Mie scattering theory to the data and performing mathematical conversion, the complete particle size distribution can be derived.
