A method of coating a food product, the method comprising spraying a coating substance at the product whilst the product is falling under gravity, so as to coat at least a first surface of the product. The overspray is electostatically charged using a needle electrode 13, wherein the charged coating substance can be attracted back towards the product after the product has landed on a grounded exit conveyor so as to coat a further surface or surfaces thereof. The food product may be coated with a flavouring such as a spice. |
