Let’s talk “SHEAR”
We routinely get asked the question “What’s the difference between high shear and low shear mixing and which do I really need?” Without boring you with shear rates, reciprocal seconds, and tip speed lingo, suffice it to say that high shear mixing delivers drastically reduced batch times and smoother, more uniform, and often thicker products that contain any of the following functional ingredients:
- Starches
- Carrageenan
- Locust bean gum
- Guar gum
- Xanthan gum
- Gum Arabic
- Pectin
- CMC
- Gelatin
- Carbopol®
- Proteins
