Food Separation

Hey peeps! Please enjoy my post about how to separate food in large number.

It's easier to separate food on the same phase, like solid from solid or liquid from liquid. For example, to separate stones from rice. We could handpicking but it really takes a lot of time, another method in Indonesia is called "ditampih" which works really good. Another example is to separate sands from rice using "centrifuge" method. How about separating liquid from liquid? We could extract it like in extracting coconut milk from coconut. In separating aromatic liquid from flower, we could first dissolving flower in water to get the aromatic compounds, then distill the compounds and you will get the pure aromatic liquid. Another method in separating liquid from liquid is evaporation, as in separate coconut oil from coconut.

To separate food on different phase, like solid from liquid, we could use separating coffee from its pulps as an example. First, we need to stream the coffee in one big room while we siphon the air. Then slowly we could see some crystal will starting to form. That crystal is the coffee in different phase.

So that's how we separate food in large number. As usual, I'm very welcome if there's any suggestion, just leave your comments below. Peace out! ;)
