Against the Grain Farms

On是一家生产非转基因古代谷物的生产商，这些谷物是从世界各地手工挑选出来的，因为它们的营养特性，并种植在安大略省，以便向加拿大保健食品和当地市场供应当地种植的传统谷物。大麦是他们最受欢迎的谷物类型之一，有许多品种生产，富含纤维、花青素和蛋白质。随着这些谷物在安大略省农场的成功建立，AGF正计划向加拿大健康食品市场推出一条新的产品线，即大麦饮料。拟议的研究将分四个阶段进行，包括：测试不同的大麦品种以评估建议配方的产品质量；开发三种不同的风味特征；调整配方和加工条件以获得最佳的风味、香气、质地和外观；确定包装选择和储存条件；以及食品安全和感官质量的货架期研究。科内斯托加学院食品加工技术研究所(IFPT)的研究小组将进行实验，分析和解释数据，并准备最终报告，包括配方、保质期数据和针对谷物农场的产品改进建议。

Against the Grain Farms (AGF) located in Mountain, ON is a producer of non-GMO ancient cereal grains that have been hand selected from around the world, due to their nutritional properties, and planted in Ontario in order to supply locally grown heritage grains to Canadian health food and local markets. Barley is one of their most popular type of grains and is produced in many varieties that are high in fiber, anthocyanin, and proteins. With the successful establishment of these grains at their farm in Ontario, AGF is planning to launch a new product line to the Canadian health food market, barley-based beverages. The proposed research will be conducted under four phases, including: testing different barley varieties to evaluate product quality for the proposed formulations; development of three different flavour profiles; adjustment to formulations and processing conditions for optimal flavour, aroma, texture, and appearance; determining packaging options, and storage conditions; and shelf-life study for food safety and sensory quality. The research team at Conestoga College's Institute of Food Processing Technology (IFPT) will conduct experiments, analyze and interpret the data and prepare the final report including formulations, shelf life data, and recommendations for improvements of the product to Against the Grain Farms.
