Hello Bromos, I am developing nutritional powder that can be mixed with water or milk as like Bournvita, complan etc.
In the mix, I have to add artificial sweetener in mgs. Which method I have to follow so that individual product contains noted amount of sweetener when prepared in bulk?
It would be easy in liquid beverages. Everything gets dissolved properly. How about proper mixing of ingredients in powders?
Please help me.
Thank you in advance 
You need to mix the properly dosed microingredients with 5 to 10 parts of the largest ingredient like sugar or other carbohydrate in the formula. Once its intimately blended, you blend it with remaining ingredients to form the final blend .
Others do it in three stages ,where the second stage is to blend the blended microingredients with part of bulk ingredient intimately, then finally blending with the remainder of the bulk ingredients for the final dry mix.

If you truly understand my statement, you xan easily adapt and improvise on any equipment available to you.
Thank you for your responses:smiling_face:
A similar mixer like Stephan VCM does the same homogenous mixing…
Thats what I use in the lab often to do pilot scale homogeneous mixing All dry mix, fat or oil containing mixes, lumpy mixes …etc…
Follow the serial dilution method where you mix the smallest dose of ingredient to the next larger one homogeneously in a blender, then mix this homogenized mixture with the next larger ingredients.
What volume of powder are you mixing?
What is your smallest batch size of pre mix?
What is your largest batch size of pre mix?
What equipment do you currently have?
Please can you confirm the components in your powder blend?
