Abstract
The new invention suggests that the protein framework be developed in a continuously working 2-shaft kneading device (11) for the production of paste product dough without--as was previously required--a dwelling time of 10-15 minutes in a mixing trough. In so doing, a so-called dry and crumbly dough is formed. This is transferred to a directly adjoining single-shaft screw press (31) without the application of pressure if possible. The new installation accordingly comprises three characteristic process stages in a corresponding manner: a first whirling mixer (8) for the intimate mixing of the dry components with water, a 2-shaft kneading device (11), and a single-shaft press (31).
