Geometric dilution
Use geometric dilution when a small quantity of a potent or low-dose ingredient must be spread evenly through a large batch.
- 1Place the low-dose ingredient in a suitable container or small blender.
- 2Add an approximately equal amount of diluent and mix thoroughly.
- 3Add diluent equal to the amount now in the mix and mix again.
- 4Repeat, doubling each time, until all the pre-blend has been made or the pre-blend is large enough to add to the main blender.
- 5Add the pre-blend to the main blender in the BMR sequence.
