Next we will show you how to calculate a mixture and will present the elaboration process of five types of ice creams that are mixed.
How do we calculate the quantities of a mixture?
In order to calculate the quantities that are required for a mixture, we will use as an example 4, where it is recommended to use 40% of the pulp over the total base.
If you want to elaborate 2 kilograms of mixture for strawberry ice cream with mixture “4”, you will need to do the following calculus:
- Total of the fruit pulp + 100% + 40% over the total amount of the base = 140% (the base plus the pulp)
According to our calculation, 2 kilograms of mixture “4” represents 140%.
Now you need to calculate the weight of each ingredient.
Step 1: calculate the weight of the base
Step 2: calculate the weight of the pulp
Step 3: calculate the weight of the rest of the ingredients
Ex:
Powder skim milk: 1,429 kg x 11/100 = 0,157 kg = 157 g.
Fat: 1429 x 5/100 = 0,071 kg = 71g.
Sugar: 1429 x 16/100 =0,229 kg = 229 g.
Stabilizer: 1429 x 0,5/100 = 0,007 kg = 7 g.
Water: 1429 x 67,5/100 = 0,965 kg = 965 g.
We have calculated the exact quantity of each necessary ingredient to prepare 2 kilograms of strawberry ice cream.
