unrefined ingredients

• ZAPMILL™ Friction Cooker cooks best with whole unrefined raw ingredients

• This includes raw high fibre grains, seeds, fruits, vegetables, herbs and meat

• When cleaned, raw materials require little preparation before cooking

long shelf life

• The friction cooking process leaves little moisture in the finished food products

• Depending on ingredients, this means friction cooked products can have longer shelf lives

• In some applications friction cooking also minimises damage to antioxidants

extremely fast

• ZAPMILL™ Friction Cooker primarily uses friction to generate the various high temperatures required to cook a wide range of foods

• Processing time varies but is usually less than 15 seconds according to the ingredients used

• Possibly the fastest food processing technology available today

• Loss of nutritional value is minimised by this rapid friction cooking process; as the destruction of sensitive nutrients, such as vitamins and amino acids tends to be a function of temperature, time and other factors such as pressure and shear forces – find out more

tasty foods

• The rapid friction cooking process adds no extra steam or water to the food and dries the finished product instantly

• This means the food is not “washed” through boiling, pressurised steam, or extended periods of high temperature, which may damage nutrients, as in some other common cooking methods

• There is also no hot drying to further damage the finished product

what you can process

A versatile food processing machine, it can convert a wide range of whole grains such as rice, maize, wheat, oats, quinoa and buckwheat, and legumes such as chickpea into great-tasting food products.

These products can have their flavour enhanced by adding a wide variety of ingredients. You may wish make a sweet, savoury or plain product, or want to boost its nutritional content by adding certain ingredients.

Additionally, the friction cooking process doesn’t damage the nutrients in the raw ingredients, creating healthier food products.

We have only scratched the surface with what is possible with friction cooking.

So if there is a particular ingredient you’d like to process that isn’t listed here, please get in touch. By agreement we are happy to test raw materials on our own machines.

WHAT YOU CAN MAKE

Whether you want an extruded food for a breakfast cereal or snack food, to produce rice or breadcrumbs, falafel, smoothie or soup mix, ingredients for muffins, slices and desserts, or even confectionery the ZAPMILL™ Friction Cooker can produce it.

We provide different cutting tools to shape your products and any product can be grounded down to produce a crumb, seasoning or a mix of shapes and textures.

Since the products are made using friction cooking, they retain more of their nutrients and are more digestible than products made via other processes.
