    摘要: A system for dispensing a plant-based milk includes a mixing chamber for emulsifying a plant-based paste and water, a plant-based paste storage connected to the mixing chamber via a first conduit, a water storage connected to the mixing chamber via a second conduit, and a cooling system. The system includes a pumping system for moving a prescribed amount of the plant-based paste into the mixing chamber upon receiving an input from a user via a user interface, a flow system for flowing water from the water storage to the mixing chamber, and a control system. The control system receives the input from the user, activates the pumping system and activates the flow system. Further, the control system activates the mixing chamber for emulsifying the plant-based paste and the water, and dispenses the emulsified plant-based mixture of the paste and the water.

    摘要: A method for forming a grain-based cereal paste that includes preparing a mixture of the paste and water at a target first cereal-to-water weight ratio, boiling the mixture for a target boiling duration of time, cooling the mixture to a prescribed temperature for a target cooling duration of time, adding enzymes to the mixture, the amount of enzymes calculated based on a dry weight of the paste in the mixture, maintaining the mixture with added enzymes for a specified duration of time at a specified temperature, preparing a dehydrated mixture by removing water from the mixture to result in a prescribed moisture content for the dehydrated mixture, admixing a plant based oil to the dehydrated mixture at a prescribed oil-to-mixture weight ratio, and milling the dehydrated mixture containing the admixed plant based oil to prepare a paste with a particle size in a range of 1 to 120 microns.
