Semi Automatic Cocoa Powder Manufacturing Process in Plant

Cocoa powder is crushed into cocoa cake into a very fine powder. Good quality cocoa powder processed with our cocoa powder manufacturing machine is widely used in many foods such as crackers, chocolate drinks, puddings, cream, bonbons, chocolate candies, ice cream and more. Many people are very curious about how cocoa powder is made, especially the cocoa powder manufacturing process in the plant. Let me introduce the semi automatic process to you.

The semi automatic cocoa powder manufacturing process consists of several major components: cocoa bean roasting, peeling, bean grinding, oil pressing, oil cake crushing, powder grinding.

1. Roasting cocoa bean

In the production of cocoa beans, this first step is roasted. Roasting conditions directly affect the quality of cacao production in the follow-up. Under precise pressure and temperature conditions, our cocoa beans roaster can roast cocoa beans in a roasting process that eventually require the cocoa beans to be unhealthy, not cooked, and shiny , To meet the requirements of color and flavor, and kernel water does not exceed 3.0% and other physical and chemical indicators.

2. Peeling cocoa bean

Crushing is an important step in the cocoa process. The main purpose of this step is to separate the cocoa shell from the cocoa mass, which is an important step toward crude extraction. Our cocoa bean peeling machine is at the forefront of cocoa processing in the country. Broken wind election cocoa kernel to 4-6mm is appropriate, through the five screening, the shell content control within 1.5%. My company is the indicator of excellence, efforts to improve the technology, and strive to minimize the shell content.

3. Grinding cocoa bean

As the most basic part of the production process, refining the fineness, the texture of cocoa pulp has a relatively high demand. Before entering the material, you need to grasp the material before entering the warm water. The cocoa pulp produced by our company used in the cocoa bean grinding machine requires that the passing rate of 200 meshes be above 85%.

4. Pressing cocoa oil

Cocoa pulp can be separated into cocoa cake and cocoa butter by pressing. Pressing process, the more important requirement is the fat content, if the fat content is too high, the cakes can not be shaped cake, cocoa butter purity is too low. So squeeze control is also very important.

5. Crushing cocao oil cake
The cocoa oil cake crushing machine will crush the cocoa oil cake into small cake so that the grinding maching can make cocoa powder.
6. Grinding powder

Grnding crushed cocoa cake into very fine powder, you can get cocoa powder.
