| 20080226809 | Method of Solidifying Sugar Solutions Obtained from Grapes and From Must Applied Processes, Concentrated Rectified Must, Concentrated Rectified Juice and Transformation Products of Vegetable Origin and Their Derivatives - A method of solidifying particularly sugar solutions from grape processing that can also be used for the production of concentrated, rectified must (CRM) is characterized in that the step of solidification is carried out by leading the sugar solution to a sugar concentration which is suitable for the solidification of their components able to be solidified from 50% by weight of sugars to the maximum value of the obtainable concentration. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080280023 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR FORMING CONCENTRATED CONSUMABLE EXTRACTS - Typical known methods for producing large quantities of concentrated extracts from solid raw materials such as ground, roasted coffee are not ideally suited to producing high quality coffee extracts that are rich in flavor and fragrance, and which maintain the varietal characteristics of the roasted coffee from which they are produced. The current invention provides filtration methods e.g. reverse osmosis or nanofiltration for producing such high quality concentrated extracts from more dilute extracts via solvent removal. The invention provides methods that have sufficient flexibility and scalability to be used for a wide variety of applications, including for producing industrial—scale quantities of extracts for the food and beverage industry. The invention provides methods and apparatus that can produce highly concentrated, “gourmet quality” extracts for use as flavoring agents, beverage concentrates, and fragrances. The solvent—reduced, concentrated extracts produced according to the inventive solvent removal methods can be advantageously used for applications where high quality coffee extracts, with a high concentration of soluble coffee solids, for example of at least 6 wt. %-40 wt. %, and a high level of retention of varietal flavor and fragrance characteristics are desired. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20080311276 | Production of Glucosinolates from Agricultural By-Products & Waste - The present invention relates to a process for producing glucosinolates, particularly glucoraphanin, from cruciferous plants. More particularly, a method is provided for producing glucosinolates from agricultural by-products and waste.

The method provides an extract which has a ratio of glucoraphanin to 4-hydroxyglucobrassicin of about 70 or greater. The resulting extract has improved color and odor and may be dried or used directly as an additive in a variety of foodstuffs. | 05-20-2010 |
| 20100129521 | Heat Processed Products Having Altered Monomer Profiles and Processes For Controlling The Epimerization of (-)-Epicatechin and (+)-Catechin In The Products - A method for controlling the epimerization of (−)-epicatechin to (−)-catechin in an epicatechin-containing product, preferably an edible product, or of (+)-catechin to (+)-epicatechin in a catechin-containing product, comprises the step of heating the product at a temperature of up to about 200° C. and at a pH of up to about 8. Under either method, the epimerization may be carried out in an open food processor in a reduced oxygen atmosphere or in a closed food processor. The edible product may be pasteurized, boiled, or sterilized during the epimerization. Epimerization is minimized by lowering the heating temperature, by lowering the pH, and/or by lowering the heating time. Conversely, the epimerization is maximized by increasing the heating temperature, by increasing the pH, and/or by increasing the heating time. The edible product may contain or be a fruit product, a vegetable product, a cereal product, a bean product, a nut product, a spice product, or a botanical product. | 05-27-2010 |
