Liquid food dispensing device () for dispensing hot or cold beverages or other liquid foods without using any mixing or whipping chambers comprising at least one liquid component source () and a diluent source (), a delivery device and at least one diluent nozzle and one food component nozzle wherein the delivery device and diluent and food component nozzles are configured for ejecting at least one stream () of diluent at a predetermined spatial configuration inside a container () and within a velocity range effective to create turbulence and mix the food component so to produce the food product such as the hot or cold beverage.

Method and system for in-cup dispensing, mixing and foaming hot and cold beverages from liquid concentrates

The invention concerns a device for dispensing a beverage comprising a mixture of liquid, e.g. water, and at least one liquid concentrate, with at least two liquid nozzles connected respectively to at least one liquid source for producing a first jet of liquid in air along first path and a second jet of liquid in air along a second path, at least one concentrate nozzle connected to at least one liquid concentrate source for delivering a stream of liquid concentrate in air along a third path, wherein the liquid nozzles and the concentrate nozzle are oriented with respect to each other so that the first, second and third paths intersect above a container at a common intersection point, whereby the mixture is formed by collision of the respective jets and the stream(s).

Method and system for dispensing hot and cold beverages from liquid concentrates

The invention relates to a food composition having an increased shelf stability and robustness when stored in microbiologically sensitive conditions which comprises an acidifying preservative system adapted to reduce the microbial growth in the composition and a neutralizing system which is inactivated in said microbiologically sensitive conditions and is adapted to activate on demand upon reactivating conditions of the neutralizing system are met so that the neutralizing system acts on the acidifying preservative system to neutralize its sourness and/or acidity thereby improving the taste perception of the composition. The invention also relates to a dry blend usable as a preservative system in food, particularly deferred cooking food that requires storage in microbiologically sensitive conditions.

On-demand neutralization of acid-preserved food

A device for cleaning and sanitizing a food reservoir. The device includes two parts. The first part contains at least one or more enzymes and the second part contains one or more antimicrobial agents. The second part is isolated from the first part by a degradable barrier that is solid and stable under storage conditions but is adapted to decompose upon exposure to the aqueous conditions used for cleaning.
