Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of milk powder preparation methods, in particular to a formula milk powder and a mixing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Formula milk powder is a scientifically designed infant food that is designed to simulate the nutritional components of breast milk and meet the growth and development needs of infants. It is usually based on skim milk powder, whole milk powder or other dairy products, with appropriate amounts of vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids, such as DHA, added to provide comprehensive nutrition for infants. The production process of formula milk powder requires precise mixing of base powder and various nutrients during the production process to ensure the nutritional value and safety of the final product.

[0003] However, although the prior art can mix the dry-mixed base powder and heat-sensitive nutrients such as DHA to a certain extent to obtain formula milk powder by adjusting parameters such as premixing time, premixing paddle speed, dry mixing time and dry mixing paddle speed, it still faces the challenge of achieving uniform mixing. Although these parameters are considered to be the main factors affecting the uniformity of dry mixing, in actual operation, due to the limitations of various material properties and equipment performance, it is difficult to achieve the ideal mixing effect even after fine adjustment. This leads to uneven distribution of nutrients in the products obtained from the same batch of mixing. After such uneven products are packaged, the content of nutrients in different packages varies greatly, which in turn affects the overall quality of the formula milk powder and the health experience of consumers. Therefore, exploring more effective mixing technologies to overcome the limitations of the prior art and achieve higher quality uniform mixing is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in the formula milk powder industry.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0017] Terminology explanation:

[0019] As mentioned in the background art, in the prior art, in the dry mixing step of milk powder, the uniform mixing of heat-sensitive nutrients such as DHA in the dry mixed base powder is usually controlled by adjusting parameters such as premixing time, premixing paddle speed, dry mixing time, and dry mixing paddle speed. However, in actual production, it is difficult to achieve more uniform mixing by only adjusting the above parameters. Therefore, in this application, the inventors tried to develop a new mixing method and proposed a series of protection schemes of this application.

For the convenience of measurement, in the above-mentioned dry mixed base powder, the raw milk dry powder (that is, the dry matter in raw milk) is measured. This measurement method does not affect and limit the preparation method of the dry mixed base powder. Preferably, the dry matter content in the liquid raw milk is 12.0%-12.5%.

[0040] In the prior art, for this type of formula milk powder, a mixing method similar to that of the present application is mostly used, that is, auxiliary materials and nutritional ingredients that are stable under high temperature conditions are mixed with an emulsion and then dried to obtain a dry mixed base powder, and then the dry mixed base powder is dry mixed with heat-sensitive ingredients to prevent high temperature from destroying the heat-sensitive ingredients, and finally a nutritious formula milk powder is obtained.

[0045] Preferably, in the present application, the preparation method of the dry mixed base powder is as follows, and those skilled in the art can also flexibly adjust it according to actual production.

[0046] 1. Fresh milk reception and sterilization: After the raw milk arrives at the factory, it is sampled and tested. After passing the test, it is cooled and pumped into a storage tank through the milk collection pipeline for temporary storage. After the milk is purified, it is heated and sterilized through a plate heat exchanger. After sterilization and cooling, it is pumped into a storage tank for temporary storage.

[0047] 2. Mixing: According to the production formula, pasteurized milk and RO water are pumped into the circulating mixing system composed of a wet mixing tank and a vacuum mixer. When the mixing temperature reaches 50°C, the vacuum mixer absorbs the raw and auxiliary materials in the powder bin through negative pressure. After the system circulates the mixing, it is temporarily stored in the wet mixing tank.

[0048] 3. Homogenization and wet mixing storage: The edible vegetable blending oil and the wet mixed liquid are heated up in the static mixer and then enter the homogenizer for homogenization. After homogenization, the liquid is cooled down and enters the wet mixing storage tank for temporary storage.

[0049] 4. Water evaporation: The mixed liquid is pumped from the mixing storage tank into the evaporator balance tank, then enters the preheater for preheating, enters the top of the flash evaporator for heating, and then enters the heater and insulation pipe for sterilization. The sterilized material enters the lower part of the flash evaporator for cooling, and then enters the effect body for concentration. The effect body is steam heated by a hot pressure pump. The material is evaporated and concentrated in the first, second and third effect bodies (i.e. the first evaporator, the second evaporator and the third evaporator) and enters the concentrated milk tank.

[0050] 5. Preheating of concentrated milk: The concentrated milk is heated by a tubular heat exchanger and then enters the atomizing spray gun.

[0051] 6. Atomization and agglomeration: After concentration, the material is atomized at high pressure, and the droplets come into contact with hot air and dry instantly. The fine powder particles brought out by the exhaust of the drying tower enter the top of the drying tower through the backflush pipe and undergo dry-wet agglomeration with the concentrated milk droplets. The droplets and powder particles adhere together to increase the diameter of the powder particles.

[0052] 7. Static bed agglomeration and cooling: The powder particles of concentrated milk droplets after instant drying by hot air fall into the static bed at the bottom of the drying tower, and are cooled by 60-68℃ hot air. The powder particles are dry-dry agglomerated to increase the diameter of the powder particles.

[0053] 8. Fluidized bed agglomeration cooling: The milk powder enters the next process after being cooled by clean air.

[0054] 9. Negative pressure dense phase conveying: The dried and cooled milk powder is transported and stored in the silo through pipeline negative pressure dense phase conveying, which reduces the damage of powder particles during the transportation process.

[0055] 10. Dry mixing: Use a double-blade dry mixer to evenly mix the wet semi-finished product and the dry mixed raw material DHA to achieve a relative standard deviation of dry mixed nutrients ≤10%, wherein the key points are premixing time 50-70s, dry mixing time 100-140s, the speed of the stirring paddle used for premixing 14-34rpm, the speed of the stirring paddle used for dry mixing 60-80rpm, the specific surface area ratio of DHA to the specific surface area of ​​the dry mixed base powder is controlled in the range of 0.8-2.5, preferably 1.5-2.0, which can ensure that the relative standard deviation of the uniformity of dry mixed DHA is ≤10%.

[0056] 11. Packaging: Vacuum powder filling technology and mixed gas (carbon dioxide and nitrogen) pre-filling system are used to can milk powder in a mixed gas environment.

[0057] In a second typical embodiment of the present application, a formula milk powder is provided. The formula milk powder is prepared by the mixing method of the formula milk powder described above, and the relative standard deviation of the DHA content between different positions in the formula milk powder is ≤10%.

[0058] More preferably, the relative standard deviation of the DHA content in the formula milk powder includes but is not limited to ≤9%, ≤8.5%, ≤8%, ≤7.5%,

[0059] ≤7%, ≤6.5%, ≤6%, ≤5.5%, ≤5%, ≤4.5%, ≤4%, ≤3.5%, ≤3.2%, ≤3% or ≤2.7%.

[0060] The formula milk powder prepared by the above mixing method was sampled at different positions of the formula milk powder prepared in the same batch, and the relative standard deviation of the DHA content in the samples was ≤10%.

[0061] The beneficial effects of the present application will be further explained in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
