  Foam in final product

  Posted by Anonymous on April 6, 2018 at 6:37 pm

  Hi All!

  I have a formula that uses Olivem1000 as the emulsifier.  Its a very stable formula so long as the temps are kept stable during the heating process. 

  My issue is the foam. I generally make batches in a minimum of 1500 grams.  I use a Kitchen Aid stick blender.  I ALWAYS get a lot of foam on top of my final product. Some of the foam pours off into my jars, even after scooping foam off top of the final product. I have not been able to figure out how to avoid these air bubbles.  I end up losing product when scooping off the foam.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I thank you in advance!

  Usually kitchen blenders have high speed, 6000 RPM is a lot for a jar. Perhaps  something like this will help you.

  And if you are willing to spend a little you could just buy this.

  Without knowing the list of ingredients or even what type of product it is, I am unable to help.

  Spray (ethanol) alcohol when the emulsion starts to become thicker and decreases in temperature. That will solve the problem.
