In today’s increasingly demanding market for health and flavor, using professional chocolate making equipment can not only improve productivity but also ensure the flavor and quality of each chocolate.
Raw Material Preparation: Starting with Cocoa Beans
Selecting high-quality cocoa beans is the basis of high-quality chocolate. Preliminary cleaning, stone removal, and baking of cocoa beans is the key first step in the cocoa powder making process. It is suggested that an automatic baking machine be used to control the temperature and time so as to fully release the flavor of cocoa beans.
Shelling and Grinding: Creating Fine Cocoa Pulp
The shelled cocoa kernels need to be carefully ground by a professional chocolate grinding machine. This process is usually divided into two stages: rough grinding and fine grinding, and finally reaches the fineness of 20-25 microns, forming a uniform and smooth cocoa pulp. The structure of cocoa butter can also be prevented from being damaged by high temperatures by using a cooling grinder.
Tempering Molding: From Slurry to Chocolate Bar
Adding cocoa butter, powdered sugar, milk powder, and other materials into the ground cocoa paste, mixing, entering a temperature regulator for temperature control, and then molding and cooling with a mold to obtain the finished chocolate. It is recommended to use professional chocolate-making equipment with an assembly line to achieve automatic and efficient production.
Cocoa Powder Processing: By-Products Can Also Become Fine Products
After extracting cocoa butter by pressing, the remaining cocoa cakes are crushed and screened to obtain high-quality cocoa powder. This link is an essential part of the cocoa powder making process, suitable for chocolate drinks, cakes, and other applications.
