Abstract
The invention concerns a device for preparing hydrocolloids comprising means heating a container containing a hydrocolloid. The heating means consist of preferably low-power ceramic resistors, insulated on three surfaces transmitting heat only through the top surface in direct contact with a tube square in external cross section and circular in internal cross section of diameter adapted to the diameter of the hydrocolloid cartridges.
Claims13
An apparatus for preparing hydrocolloids comprising:
- (a) thermally conducting bodies each having a receptable configured to receive a cartridge containing a hydrocolloid and each receptable configured with a different heater to heat the hydrocolloid in the corresponding cartridge;
- and
- (b) a controller configured to independently control each heater of each receptable to independently prepare each hydrocolloid in each cartridge.
