Embodiment Construction

[0031] According to a first aspect, the present invention relates to a system 100 for preparing cold or chilled food or beverages from a bag 10: preferably, the bag 10 is a flexible bag and contains the food or drink to be processed in its inner volume. Beverage base ingredients to obtain final frozen or refrigerated products.

[0032] The system 100 of the present invention also includes an apparatus 40 for preparing cold or chilled food or beverage products from the bag 10 .

[0033] According to the present invention, the food or beverage base contained in the bag 10 is provided in an initially frozen or semi-frozen state, from a standard household freezer, where the temperature has typically been reduced to about -18°C.

[0034] Where ingredients are referred to in this specification, it is understood that the ingredients are capable of being completely or partially frozen when introduced into a standard domestic freezer for a certain amount of time, wherein the temperatur...

Abstract

The invention refers to a pack (10) for the preparation of a cooled food or beverage product, the pack comprising at least one container (30) having an inner volume where an ingredient able to be made frozen or partially frozen is stored and a fitment assembly (20) affixed to the at least one container and communicating with its inner volume, the fitment assembly (20) being configured so as to provide a fluid jet circulating in the inner volume of the pack, the fluid being provided at a higher temperature than the temperature of the ingredient when it has been made frozen or partially frozen so that the majority of the ingredient melts into the cooled food or beverage product dispensed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system and a corresponding method for preparing cold or refrigerated food or beverages from packets, especially flexible packets, containing food or beverage base ingredients. Background technique [0002] The preparation of food or beverages from flexible sachets or containers containing food or beverage ingredients is known in the prior art, eg from documents WO 99 / 05044 or WO 2011 / 024103. Compared to semi-rigid and rigid containers, which usually have the shape of a capsule, these flexible containers or sachets generally have the advantage of using a smaller amount of material to pack the product, which results in an overall lower production cost, and several life cycle assessments have shown that they are more affected. Low life cycle impact and an advantage on the part of the user that it will require less available space to store the bags since they are more compact. [0003] To enable the preparation of cold o...
