In general, preparation of hummus is simple, but requires certain knowledge and special equipment. First, the main component, the chickpeas, are boiled and crushed and then mixed with other ingredients. It is worth mentioning that the list of ingredients may vary depending on personal preferences and tastes. In general, preparation of hummus requires a large food container, a sieve, a container for blending and a blender for grinding all the ingredients. If you prepare hummus at home, it is recommended to use a blender when making the preparations. If, however, you are talking about large-scale production of hummus to meet the needs of supermarkets and restaurants, then quite different units – a dedicated hummus mill – will be required to process the necessary amount of raw materials for large-scale operations.
GlobeCore Colloid Mills for Hummus Production
The GlobeCore line of colloid mills is designed for the production of highly stable colloidal solutions, super-fine suspensions, mixtures, and emulsions. As a hummus mill, GlobeCore’s colloid mills can be made of different capacity to meet an individual customer’s order, and may be retrofitted into existing food production units already in service at your production facility.
How a Hummus Mill Works
The operation of a hummus mill is based on so-called wet milling, provided by a variable gap width between a rotor and a stator. The sophisticated geometric surface of the rotor creates increased turbulence that breaks down the particles of the ingredients being processed for hummus preparation. Due to the centrifugal forces and high relative speed between the rotating rotor and the stationary stator, hummus becomes homogeneous, finely divided and retains its taste and nutritional value.
New Generation Hummus Mill Design
GlobeCore’s engineering department has developed a new and more advanced model of the colloid mill. GlobeCore always takes the needs of its customers into consideration and is ready to improve existing equipment and develop revolutionary new units to solve a wide spectrum of industrial problems.
One of the latest GlobeCore developments in the food industry is a new and more advanced model of the traditional hummus mill. This type of equipment has enjoyed wide popularity in producing yogurts, fruit juices, puree, jams, mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and peanut butter.
Key Features of the New Hummus Mill
The new model hummus mill is made of stainless steel, making it resistant to corrosion. It is easy to use and requires little advanced preparation. Additionally, the new design of the gap between the rotor and the stator provides improved characteristics for the final product. The new unit is belt-driven, which ensures smooth and noiseless operation of the equipment.
