1、 The production process of puffed snacks mainly includes the following steps:
1. Raw material processing: Mix the selected raw materials with water and perform starch gelatinization treatment
2. Processing: The starch gelatinized material is processed by steaming or steam turbine to form a crispy substance that can enter the expansion furnace
3. Puffing: Place processed raw materials into a puffing furnace and subject them to high temperature and high pressure treatment to instantly expand, forming puffed food
4. Drying: Send puffed food into a drying room to remove excess moisture and give it a certain shelf life
5. Packaging: Packaging the dried puffed food to form edible finished products
2、 The equipment configuration of the puffed snack production line includes:
1. Starch gelatinization equipment: gelatinize starch through steam to make it viscous for subsequent processing
2. High pressure cooking equipment: After starch gelatinization treatment, the crispy raw materials are processed in the cooking equipment to form substances that are easier to enter the expansion furnace
3. Puffing furnace: By using high temperature and high pressure to instantly expand raw materials, puffed food is formed
4. Drying equipment: Drying puffed food to remove excess moisture and give it a certain shelf life
5. Packaging machine: Packaging puffed food after drying, including manual and automatic bagging methods
3、 Differences in production process of different types of puffed snacks:
1. Baked puffed food: powder making → steaming → shaping → one-time drying → maturation → secondary drying → baking → seasoning → packaging
2. Fried puffed food: powder making → steaming → shaping → drying → deep frying → seasoning → packaging
3. Direct extrusion type puffed food: powder making → mixing → extrusion puffing → shaping → baking → seasoning → packaging
