Food Magic Daily 2 9 Monday, June 3, 2019 Shared Gael Orr, Once Again Nut Butter's Marketing Communication and PR manager, "I couldn't be prouder of the incredible steps taken to deliver our customers great tasting products that reduce cross-contamination possibilities. Both the new peanut butter facility and all the dedicated areas for tree nut and seed butters in our original facility are incredibly pristine. We take allergen con- trol very seriously and keeping our peanut, tree nut and seed butters separate is a huge part of that. In addition, the manufacturing flexibility the new peanut butter plant gives us is wonderful, and we're excited for what the future holds because of this initiative."

Western Foods has two state-of-the- art inline mills to produce organic and conventional flours utilizing specialized Japanese style rice milling techniques to manufacture to the tightest granulations such as meal, coarse, fine and extra fine specifications. Product offerings include reduced micro flours, lowering micro counts on both rice and ancient grain flours together with pre-gelatinized (which is pre-cooked rice flour). Western Foods' latest product offer- ing, Púro, is a highly effective, fully val- idated 5-log pathogen reduction process for salmonella, mitigating the microbio- logical risk associated with raw com- modity flours. Púro can reduce harmful bacteria, pathogens, mold, E. coli, yeast and microbes. The natural chemical free process is gentle on ingredients to Western Foods (Cont'd. from p. 1) ensure that the physical and organolep- tic characteristics (flavor, texture, appearance and performance) and over- all functionality of Western Foods' flour products are protected and maintained. Western Foods' customers have become accustomed to reliability when it comes to starch quality, enzyme activity, and of course gluten-free (<10.0ppm gluten), throughout the breadth of its extensive product lines. Western Foods' new Delta Region facility in the South-Central states has an excellent multi-modal transportation sys- tem, including two rail lines (Burlington Northern Santa Fe and Union Pacific), 13 common freight carriers with five termi- nals, and the Port of Pine Bluff, a slack water harbor located on the Arkansas River. Pine Bluff is 38 miles from Little Rock, Arkansas and 137 miles from Memphis, Tennessee. The company also offers retailers both branded or private label flexible package options for gluten-free mixes, snacks and other related products. Visit Western Foods at booth #200.

With the introduction of artificial neural networks (ANN) to achieve useful results, NIR and FT-IR calibration has become increasingly complex, requiring significant time and expense to main- tain. The ORACLE is also more repeat- able than other reference techniques. Wet chemistry reference methods such as Soxhlet extraction were considered the gold standard because they have been around for a long time, some over 100 years. These techniques utilize sol- vents to extract fat from samples but are prone to accuracy and repeatability errors, require skilled chemists, are haz- ardous, and often extract non-fat com- ponents if not optimized for a specific matrix. The ORACLE removes operator variation entirely. As long as the sample is within the detection zone, the entire ORACLE (Cont'd. from p. 1) sample is analyzed with excellent preci- sion. Since the ORACLE does not require any calibration or method development, it provides time and cost savings. For time savings, labs can cut down test times from hours to minutes. Faster test times allow for faster adjust- ments in manufacturing, which mini- mizes waste. The cost savings are real- ized in a number of different ways. The most obvious cost saving is through the elimination of hazardous solvents that have to be purchased, stored and prop- erly disposed of. However, the most significant cost savings come with the increased accuracy of the ORACLE. It is not uncommon for customers to save tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars per year just by optimizing their specification ranges.

Lamber Dishwashers – The Economical Choice How do you choose the right ware wash- ing system? Should it be about price? What about savings? Perhaps you should consider functionality, quality, certifica- tions and ease of use. With Lamber's line of commercial ware washing systems, you don't have to choose. Lamber, with its head office and manufacturing plant in Lodivecchio, Italy, was established in 1948 by Mr. Raimondo Affaba, who began production and distribution of dairy washing equip- ment and moved into the commercial and industrial side of the business. By 1976, after establishing Lamber as a leader, Raimondo passed the business on to the five Affaba sons, who currently run the business. As the industry continued to grow, so did Lamber. Numerous Lamber prod- ucts are listed under the ISO Quality System Certificate standards, the Energy Star certification as well as UL and NSF guidelines. Recently, Lamber introduced the ECO WASH system, lowering elec- tricity consumption on some machines by up to 50 percent. Lamber stocks and distributes more than 15 models of dish machines in North America – ranging from small glass washers to an array of under counter models extending to pass through and conveyor style units. Lamber remains a global leader in the ware washing industry. Lamber's commercial line is imported and distrib- uted in North America exclusively by Eurodib.
