How to adjust the puffing effect of raw materials

In the production process of puffed food, uneven product discharge and spraying often occur, which affects the degree and effect of puffing. Today, I will share some troubleshooting methods with you.


Point 1: Control of puffing equipment

Different puffing equipment has varying degrees of puffing. Generally speaking, puffing equipment can control the time, temperature, and pressure of raw materials under heating and pressure conditions, thereby affecting the degree of puffing of raw materials. By adjusting the parameters of the puffing equipment, different degrees of puffing effects can be achieved.


Point 2: Raw material ratio

The proportion of raw materials in puffed food also has a certain impact on the degree of puffing. Some raw materials contain high moisture and starch content, which can expand under heating and pressure conditions, thereby affecting the degree of expansion of the final product. Therefore, the control of product swelling degree can be achieved by adjusting the raw material ratio.


Point 3: Moisture control

The moisture content in the raw materials also has a significant impact on the degree of swelling. During the expansion process, water will be converted into steam under heating and pressure conditions, thereby promoting the expansion of raw materials. Properly controlling the moisture content can affect the swelling degree of the product.


Point 4: Pressure control

During the expansion process, factors such as time and pressure under pressure conditions can also affect the degree of expansion of the raw materials. Generally speaking, higher pressure can promote the expansion of raw materials, while lower pressure will suppress the expansion. By adjusting the pressure conditions, it is possible to control the degree of product expansion.


It should be noted that different puffed food production processes and equipment may vary, so adjustments and optimizations need to be made according to the actual situation in the specific production process. At the same time, strict quality control and testing are required to ensure the quality and taste of the product.
