The Thermally Accelerated Short Time Evaporator (TASTE), developed by Ralph Cook, is the most advanced evaporator for any type of citrus or clear fruit juice. The TASTE Evaporator can also be used as a pre-concentrator for products that contain fiber, to improve the final product quality. Because the evaporation takes place in a single pass and the product has only a short exposure to high temperatures, the taste, smell and feel of the processed product is preserved. The final concentration is then reached in the added Forced Circulation Evaporator stage. The TASTE Evaporator is widely used to concentrate both cloudy and clear juices. It produces a product with considerably less thermal damage than any other evaporation process.

• Low operating cost: Electrical Horsepower requirements are lower than with other types of evaporators
• High quality product due to no product recirculation
• Evaporator flexibility: flow rate reduction by up to 50%
• User-friendly
• Low maintenance
• Low installation cost: the machine is horizontally fully assembled and tested in our factory and is lifted into vertical position at customer’s plant
