The first step in making chocolate is to process cocoa beans into fine cocoa paste. First of all, the cocoa machine was used to grind the cocoa chips after baking and shelling, which laid the foundation for subsequent treatment. Then, enter the chocolate milling stage, where the cocoa pulp is finely ground with sugar and other ingredients to create a more uniform chocolate pulp. The common equipment includes ball mills and refiners to release the cocoa aroma and optimize the taste fully.
