Production & Sourcing
Harvesting and Cleaning: Beetroot roots are harvested when they have reached maturity. They are then thoroughly washed and cleaned to remove any dirt or debris.
Preparing the Beetroot: The cleaned beetroot is peeled and sliced into thin pieces or grated to increase the surface area for drying.
Blending and Homogenizing: The sliced or grated beetroot is blended to create a uniform mixture. This step helps in achieving consistent flavor and color throughout the powder.
Thermal Treatment: This treatment can involve blanching or steaming the beetroot at a controlled temperature and time.
Drying: The thermal-treated beetroot mixture is then dried using the spray-drying method. In this process, the beetroot slurry is atomized into fine droplets using a high-pressure nozzle. These droplets are then introduced into a drying chamber where hot air rapidly evaporates the moisture, leaving behind dried particles.
Particle Size Reduction: The dried beetroot particles are further processed to achieve the desired particle size. This can be done through milling or grinding to create a fine powder with consistent texture.
