This product consists of:

Low methoxyl amidated pectin E 440ii

Dextrose
Functionality: Dispersion
To disperse the product without lumps:

Premix the powder with the other dry ingredients, and pour the preparation into the liquid under efficient stirring in order to obtain a complete dispersion.

Disperse it in a non-solvent medium (oil, alcohol, concentrated sugar solutions > 65° Brix).

Dissolution
The dissolution of the product depends on the medium and the process:

It is improved by heat treatment (time, temperature), shear-stress (propeller, homogenizer).

A complete dissolution is rapidly obtained at 80 / 85°C (176 / 185°F).

It can be difficult in a high calcium medium (hard water > 80 ppm Ca++, milk), then it requires extra time or sequestering salts.
