Embodiment 1

[0062] 100 lbs of the coating composition was prepared according to the formula shown in Table 1, and the preparation process was as follows.

[0063] Table 1

[0064] Element Pounds Modified Starch (Crosslinked) 4.0 Dextrose 0.3 Glycine 0.7 Sodium chloride 0.85 peanut butter 0.2 Coloring (caramel) 0.15 Water (ambient temperature, 70°F) 20.0 water (205°F) 73.8 total 100.0

[0065] The dry ingredients and peanut butter were weighed and mixed in a Cherry-Burrell stainless steel mixing tank. A slurry was made by adding 20 pounds of ambient temperature (70°F) water and mixing continued for 2 minutes.

[0066] On the other side, 73.8 lbs of tap water were placed in a steam jacketed stainless steel tank equipped with a Lightening mixer and heated to 205°F. The aforementioned slurry was then added to the heated water and mixed for 3 minutes to form a smooth viscous but flowable mixture. The mixture was filled ...

Embodiment 2

[0069] One hundred (100) pounds of coated product containing fine veal and carrot particles were prepared using the ingredients shown in Table 2 in the proportions shown in Table 2 as follows.

[0070] Table 2

[0071] Element Pounds Beef and Beef By-Products 32.0 Chicken and Chicken By-Products 8.0 Modified Starch (Crosslinked) 2.5 vitamin premix 0.01 mineral premix 0.06 Coloring (caramel) 0.25 carrots (dehydrated / grinded) 2.0 water 55.18 total 100.0

[0072] The beef and chicken ingredients were ground with a Weiler grinder, passing the ground ingredients through a plate with 3 / 8 inch holes in the grinder. Each of the resulting ingredients was weighed in the amounts shown in Table 2 and added to a Reitz ribbon blender. While continuing to mix, add all ingredients in Table 2 except the carrots. While stirring the mixture, cook the mixture to 180°F. The blend was then emulsified with a Karl Schnell emul...

Embodiment 3

[0075] One hundred (100) pounds of coated product containing fine chicken and pumpkin particles was prepared using the various ingredients shown in Table 3 in the proportions shown in Table 3 as follows.

[0076] table 3

[0077] Element Pounds Beef & Beef By-Products 8.0 Chicken and Chicken By-Products 32.0 Modified Starch (Crosslinked) 2.5 vitamin premix 0.01 mineral premix 0.06 Coloring (caramel) 0.25 Pumpkin (Dehydrated / Grinded) 2.0 water 55.18 total 100.0

[0078] The chicken and beef ingredients were ground with a Weiler grinder, passing the ground ingredients through a plate with 3 / 8 inch holes in the grinder. Each of the resulting ingredients was weighed in the amounts shown in Table 3 and added to a Reitz ribbon blender. While mixing continuously, add all ingredients in Table 3 except the pumpkin. While stirring the mixture, cook the mixture to 180°F. The blend was then emulsified with a Karl S...

Abstract

Compositions and methods are disclosed for uniformly coating or sizing layers of dry pet kibble to improve its crispness over an extended period of time without losing the crispness of the dry pet kibble. palatability. The coating composition is aqueous and also contains at least one of a gum and a modified starch. The coating composition may comprise additional ingredients such as one or more of the following: flavors, colours, emulsified or granulated meat, emulsified or granulated fruits or vegetables, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals substances, non-replicating microorganisms, fibers or prebiotics. In one embodiment, the coating composition may comprise dextrose and / or glycine. After stirring and cooking, the coating composition may be a viscous slurry having a viscosity of 2500 to 4000 centipoise, preferably 3000 to 3500 centipoise when measured at room temperature.

Description

Background technique [0001] The present invention generally relates to pet food. More particularly, the present invention relates to compositions and methods for coating or sizing layers of dry pet kibble. [0002] There are currently moist pet food products on the market that come in sticks or chunks soaked in gravy. However, this product is intended only for pets to swallow with a full meal and does not coat dry pet food evenly. Stick products are too firm to mix with dry pet food, while chunky products soaked in gravy soak dry pet food. Another category of pet food on the market, SMART PUP products, are considered treats and can be frozen into puck-shaped nuggets or fed directly from the container. [0003] Additionally, there are very few products on the market today that are specifically formulated and advertised to improve dry pet food. The main categories of pet food include dry, semi-moist, and moist, with dry pet food considered the least palatable. Pet owners ca...
