IQF vs. dry vs. canned
Skip the soak, the kettle and the can line.
The cooking step happens in our plant, so your line starts with a finished, ready-to-eat ingredient.
| Dry beans | Canned beans | Seenergy IQF | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Before it hits your line | Sort, soak 8–12 h, cook 1–2 h, cool | Open, drain, rinse | Nothing. Use from frozen |
| Ingredients | Beans, plus the water and salt you add | Beans, water, salt, often a firming agent | Water, beans |
| Consistency | Varies by crop lot and cook | Drained weight varies by can | Graded No. 1, moisture held at 63% ± 3% |
| Food safety on your line | Raw crop: stones and foreign matter to sort | Metal cans and fragments to control | Ready to eat, 99.9% purity, Salmonella and Listeria negative per 25 g |
| Utilities and labor | Kettles, water, energy, sanitation | Can handling, brine disposal | Freezer space |
| Waste | Soak water and cook loss | Cans and brine | Use what you need, keep the rest frozen |
