Abstract

In a process for preparing caseinates comprising the introduction of a mixture of casein, lyes and/or basic salts and water into a baking extruding device, in order to achieve a uniform product flow discharge and an end product with good water solubility, following on from a product feed zone of the baking extruding device, the mixture is supplied to a plasticizing zone with return elements and accompanied by pressure and temperature increases, and then to a discharge zone, it being expanded after discharge from the nozzle.
