    Abstract: Through solid dosage minor reduction, the weight percentage of solids in an initial solution of crystallization is reduced in a controlled manner for crystallizing a stevia extract or remaining stevia extract starting material with low steviol glycoside content to obtain crystal steviol glycosides. The solid dosage minor reduction in the crystallization process imparts increased efficiencies to manufacturing processes and enables one or more benefits such as increased particle size distribution of the final crystal product, completion of one or more of solid product isolation processes (e.g., filtration and/or centrifugation) after crystallization, increased dewatering rate in solid product isolation processes, increased speed in subsequent solid drying, and enhanced product purities.

    Abstract: The technology disclosed in this specification pertains to pulse protein-based emulsifiers comprising unhydrolyzed soluble pulse, or pea, or chickpea protein and a dissolved, unmodified amylopectin. Also disclosed in this specification are long term shelf stable egg-free emulsions and methods of their manufacture using the described pulse protein-based emulsifiers. Stability of the emulsion can be measured by reference to their small mean oil droplet size and reduced variability in mean oil droplet size over time.

    Abstract: A method of thermally inhibiting starch or flour is provided. The method involves thermally or non-thermally dehydrating a grain to anhydrous or substantially anhydrous, and then heat treating this dehydrated grain. The heat treated dehydrated grain is then milled, producing thermally inhibited flour and/or starch. Using this method, the shelf life of the resulting thermally inhibited whole grain flour is extended compared whole grain flours that are thermally inhibited after milling.

    Abstract: A process of making a caramel color comprising a) mixing a carbohydrate with an ammonia compound and a sulfite compound and at pH from just greater than about 4.0 to about 6.0; and b) heating of the mixture from step a) in a sealed vessel to a temperature of from about 120° C. to about 137° C. and maintaining a temperature in said range for at least about 2 hours, said time and temperature being sufficient to yield a product having a color level of at least about double strength and a level of 4-MeI of less than about 20 ppm, is provided. Also provided is a process of ramped heating which results in a similar caramel color product.
