Instructions for Conditioning Nutritional Substances
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A dynamic control module for a conditioning system for nutritional substances comprising:
- a first port for receiving information related to a dynamic information identifier provided with a nutritional substance;
a second port in communication with a database with information referenced to the dynamic information identifier, the database including various conditioning protocols for the nutritional substance that may be modified to create various modified conditioning protocols stored in the database and referenced to the same nutritional substance;
a third port for receiving consumer input; and
a controller configured to send a request to the database for at least one of the modified conditioning protocols after receiving the information related to the dynamic information identifier of the nutritional substance, and further configured to output a final conditioning protocol based on the at least one modified conditioning protocol received from the data base and the consumer input.

12. A system for providing dynamic conditioning protocols to conditioners for nutritional substances comprising:
-
an input port configured to receive information regarding a nutritional substance; a library comprising conditioning protocols referenced to known nutritional substances, wherein the conditioning protocols are able to be modified and stored in the library as modified conditioning protocols referenced to the same known nutritional substances; a controller configured to compare the information regarding the nutritional substance with the modified conditioning protocols to determine at least one matching modified conditioning protocol for conditioning the nutritional substance and to send the modified conditioning protocol to a conditioner. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method for providing an updated conditioning protocol for conditioning a nutritional substance, the method comprising:
-
updating various conditioning protocols in a database of conditioning protocols referenced to known nutritional substances; accessing at least one of the updated conditioning protocols in the database referenced to known nutritional substances; receiving consumer input regarding preferences for conditioning; and adapting a final conditioning protocol for the nutritional substance based at least on the updated conditioning protocol and the consumer input. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
