Microbiological contamination, particularly in raw products such as nuts, is a major risk. Roasting alone is insufficient for effective pasteurisation. Hot air only achieves a 2-log reduction, which is not enough to control the risk of salmonella, which requires a 5-log reduction. The NAPASOL system uses saturated
A thesis published in 2023 by the Walnut Board of California demonstrates the positive effect on rancidity and vitamin E content of batch treatment. They compared saturated steam, continuous heat treatment & no treatment at all. The 2 systems studied are: the NAPASOL system and a
No food industry that uses or produces food is immune to food moths! The food moth eats everything and can pierce a closed plastic bag to attack the food. Find out how to treat a food moth infestation in this article. What is a food moth
