A similar principle of fully continuous operation was followed by Lipp Mischtechnik (Mannheim, Germany). Here the focus lies on removing undesired water from the raw materials before liquefaction and derece during that step.

Has triple stone mill ever been considered for particle size reduction like they do for Cocoa Liquor?

Since 1997 he saf been professor of food technology at the Neubrandenburg University of Applied Sciences, where he teaches dairy, confectionery and beverage technology, product and process development. One research focus is chocolate processing, where he cooperates with various companies and has published a number of papers and patents. For further information visit: .

One of the first things a chocolate producer başmaklık to consider are the influences of recipe, ingredients and particles on chocolate mass properties birli discussed above. First of all, if raw material cost is less important, e.g. in the premium segment or for making compounds, it is always quite simple to increase the fat content in the recipe in order to achieve the desired mass properties.

The unit is jacketed for product temperature control and typically a multi valve opening in the bottom fitted with a large discharge augur.

Conching is a process that helps develop the flavor, smoothness and mouthfeel of chocolate. It involves continuously agitating and aerating the chocolate mass over an extended period of time at elevated temperatures, which reduces acidity, removes unwanted flavors and enhances the smoothness of the chocolate. Conching also further refines the particle size of cocoa solids.

Melangers kişi also act bey conches, since they hayat heat and aerate the chocolate, similar to a dedicated conche.  However, the tension on the stone wheels must be reduced so that the chocolate doesn’t get over-refined, which means that the particle size of the chocolate is smaller than desired and kişi contribute to a poor mouthfeel.

Enesen Professional Chocolate Machinery has been operating since 2000. Our company, which provides services in the fields of design and production of chocolate machines and lines and the installation of turnkey automatic chocolate facilities in Turkey and abroad, includes technological, fully automatic, ergonomically designed powdered sugar mills, oil melting and stock tanks, mixers, ball mills with environmental awareness. , hazelnut – sesame mill, conch, tempering and packaging machines. In addition to these machines, our company produces chocolate cream lines, double and single filled, hazelnut chocolate filling lines, chocolate shell and coating lines in different capacities, and realizes the installation of turnkey facilities.

Ball refining is one of the chocolate micronization techniques. In order to get efficient results, CHOCOLATE PREPARATION MIXER process should hamiş exceed grinding down by 50 times and the grinded content should be liquid. Grinding time and product fineness are inversely proportional and generally the desired fineness of chocolate is in the range of 18 - 30 microns. Mixing arms of the chocolate refining machine are made of special material which subsequently heat-treated. With coupled chocolate pump and three-way valve, there is possibility to circulate the mass or discharge to a storage tank.

The melter is designed so all surfaces are removable or accessible, and without laminate faces. It has removable components to improve cleaning so you can meet strict allergen requirements. A slide-out melt head and removable stirrer allow access to all areas of the tank and grid during cleaning.

McCarter/Schmidt has become the standard in fabricating, offering high quality chocolate manufacturing equipment to suppliers involved in the chocolate industry.

After those, particle size distribution and particle package density are also important. Equal or monomodal particle sizes would create large voids filled with fat. With a bi- or multimodal distribution it is possible to replace this trapped fat by the appropriate size solid particles, which also helps larger particles to slip past each other when the suspension is moved.

This means there are a lot more varieties in each category up to the specific ‘house tastes’ that are aimed at by individual chocolate manufacturers. So at the end of the day it is generally impossible to define the flavour for high quality and to compare and identify equipment to achieve it. If considering processing alternatives it will always be necessary to adapt recipes and technology to each other in order to get the desired result.
