A process for preparing frozen particles having an average diameter of from 1 to 10 mm and comprising from 1 to 50 wt % of a frozen aqueous core and from 50 to 99 wt % of a fat-based shell is provided, the process comprising: providing a dispensing device having an inner nozzle and an outer nozzle which surrounds the inner nozzle; supplying an aqueous mix to the inner nozzle and a fat-based mix to the outer nozzle, thereby forming particles with a water-continuous core and a fat-continuous shell, and then dropping the particles into a refrigerant.

Process for producing frozen particles

Frozen aerated products are produced by i) providing two separate forming elements, ii) providing at least one open cavity on a surface each forming element, iii) providing filling devices for filling said cavities with a frozen aerated material, iv) filling two cavities, one on each moulding surface, with a frozen aerated material, wherein at least one of the cavities is filled with a frozen aerated product having an overrun of between 30% and 130%, this product is then allowed to expand outside its cavity, the two cavities are then moved opposite one another and the frozen aerated product in each cavity is pressed against the frozen aerated product in the other cavity.

Process for the manufacturing of frozen aerated products

A monitoring apparatus ( ) for monitoring soil build-up in a pipe ( ) which may form part of a pipework system including a heat exchanger. The pipework system is used in e.g. the heat treatment of milk and milk products. The monitoring apparatus ( ) is in thermal connection with the pipe ( ) and includes a body ( ) capable of being heated by a heater. The power supplied to the heater is controlled and monitored such that a change in power input to the heater is indicative of a change in heat transfer to a fluid ( ) flowing through the pipe ( ). The heat from the apparatus ( ) causes localized soil build-up in a portion of the pipe ( ) near to the heated body ( ). The soil build-up is representative of the soil build-up in the heat exchanger. The cleaning of the pipe ( ) may be based on the soil build-up indicated by the monitoring apparatus ( ).
