Let's make chocolate fillings!

Cocoa butter is the fat product of cocoa liquor. It is an integral part of the chocolate-making process. To make cocoa butter, roast and process cocoa beans with the help of a cocoa butter production machine. After that, it undergoes continuous crushing – forming a rich liquid, known as cocoa liquor. You can finally press the liquid to extract cocoa butter.

Cocoa butter

Cocoa liquor or chocolate liquor is a pure, thick cocoa mass containing equal amounts of cocoa solids and cocoa butter. It is made from fermented, dried, and roasted cocoa beans which are cracked to obtain the nibs. The cocoa nibs are then ground into a thick paste called cocoa mass which is melted to became the liquor.

Cocoa liquor

Known as part of the chocolate-making process, cocoa nibs come from the beans derived from the Theobroma cocoa tree. They are nothing else but cocoa beans that have been dried, fermented, and then cracked and separated from their husk.

Cocoa nibs

Cocoa minus its fats makes cocoa powder. Deriving this culinary element follows a careful process of roasting and winnowing cocoa beans before the nibs are ground, generating a liquor. The butter that results from melting fats is removed to leave the ingredient that defines recipes from brownies to a Frostbite cocktail.

Cocoa powder

Chocolate bars are popular snacks and gifts for many occasions and events, dating back to the Mayans and the Aztecs. They may also include other ingredients such as caramel, fruits, or nuts. Considering making chocolate bars? Make sure, though, that your chocolate bar making equipment can cover various processes such as grinding and melting, tempering, refining, and cooling.

Chocolate bars

Bonbons are chocolate confectioneries originating from the French royal court in the 17th century. From the French word bon meaning “good”, bonbons are chocolate candies with a filling inside, usually fruits, brittle, nougat, or caramel. Equipment for chocolate bonbons are varied and must be capable of chocolate tempering, molding, scraping, filling, and covering.

Chocolate bonbons

Chocolate in its liquid form is a versatile confection that can serve as a coating for different desserts. The liquid chocolate-making process utilizes a chocolate coating machine and goes through a number of steps before achieving a fine, high gloss, and sharp look. What makes all of this possible is the process of tempering.

Chocolate coatings

Chocolate fillings

Consumers usually eat chocolate spreads along with bread, or other grain-based items, such as pancakes, biscuits, waffles, and others. Although one particular brand has dominated this market for more than 50 years, there is still a place for new, health-friendly innovations and production ideas using chocolate spread machines.

Compound chocolate is a known alternative for pure chocolate. It uses vegetable fats that are semi-solid at room temperature as an alternative component. Compared to regular chocolates, they can deliver a richer cocoa flavor using practical compound chocolate production methods. It also does not have to undergo tempering due to the natural, glossy texture of vegetable fats.

Process

A ball mill uses the impact of ceramic or stainless steel balls, falling from near the top of a horizontal shell to crush the material into fine particle sizes. Ball milling is all about size reduction by using grinding media. In this case, the grinding media are ball, either ceramic or steel. The outer cylindrical shell rotates to lift the grinding balls to the top from where they fall; grinding and blending the materials at the same time. Ball mills are typically used in the ceramic, glass, paint, pyrotechnics, and porcelain industries and are also often used in food and chocolate production. By choosing the right combination of rotational speed, ball material, size, and weight it is possible to process a wide range of materials to produce ultra-fine products.

Ball mills

Continuous milling is a flow production method used to grind materials without interruption. It is often used in the production of foods, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and minerals. The material to be processed flows in at one end and the milled output flows out at the other in a continuous process. By choosing the right combination of milling technology and processing power you can obtain the desired particle size distribution in an uninterrupted stream.

Conching is a critical step in the manufacturing of chocolate. In this phase, your chocolate mix is agitated and superficially scraped by a conch, allowing the cocoa butter to separate amalgamated particles and distribute your cocoa butter more evenly. The heat generated by the process volatilizes acids improving the texture and aroma of the finished product. Early machines used vessels in the shape of a conch shell, giving the equipment its name.

Whether it is marmalade or pizza, sauce or hummus, chocolate or fruit puree, most food products undergo a cooking step during their production process. Cooking is nothing more than applying heat to food, but there are different methods to do it. For instance, baking, frying, and roasting involve cooking food without using water, unlike boiling or steaming. Industrial cookers such as vacuum and pressure cookers, industrial fryers, industrial ovens, and industrial roasters focus on specialized applications that meet the different needs of the food industry by helping producers achieve a homogeneous cooking process.

Industrial cooling equipment varies according to the consistency and temperature conversion demands the material you are handling, but the process typically involves heat exchange treatment as your products are conveyed through a cooling chamber equipped with extraction fans or circulating water. Temperature control is a crucial aspect of your commercial production and cooling systems are applied to a range of industries.

Cooling

Dosing systems are a line of hoppers, feeders, filling machines, and checkweighers that operate in sync to dispense materials accurately. Dosing is an essential feature of the packaging process, whether you’re filling shampoo bottles or tea bags. But dosing equipment is critical for formulations, too, particularly in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Imprecise dosing may cause quality degradation in the best-case scenario. In the worst scenario, it creates serious health risks.

Dosing

Enrobing your food products means coating them with additional ingredients such as chocolate, syrup, or sugar. By automating this process you produced homogeneous results and reduce wastage. Items are fed to the enrobing machine to be fully or partially covered. Following this, a blower and an agitator combine to shake any excess coating off the individual products.

Enrobing

<span style="font-weight: 400">The heating process is a step of raising the temperature of food, pharma, cosmetics, and many other types of products. You may employ different heating solutions for this process, depending on the type of product you intend to manufacture. Selecting the appropriate heater machine for your product is quite important since various products require different ranges of temperatures and different ways of heat transfer using exchangers. Industrial heating equipment varies in two ways - the type of material it can process and the reaction you want to achieve.</span>

Heating

<span style="font-weight: 400">The molding process is often included in bakery products. Utilizing molding equipment guarantees a uniform shape, weight, and size. The molding machine first gently flattens the dough mix by going through a sheeter, where a series of rollers press the thin piece of dough. The sheet is then cut into the specified shape and, depending on your final product, may be rolled by using a curling chain. After the molding, other ingredients may be added before the products are conveyed for baking or freezing.</span>

Tempering equipment is most commonly used in manufacturing chocolate products as well as bakery products. However, tempering can also be found in the metals industry for processing alloys. The idea behind the tempering process is to heat two or more items to a certain temperature so that they can be blended together easier. Chocolatiers pass the chocolate through a heating cycle and then a cooling tunnel to give their final products a smooth and glossy finish. Tempering machines automate this process, evenly distributing the crystal structure in melted chocolate across the entire production line. Besides enhancing the look and texture of coatings, denser and consistent crystallization also has the benefit of slowing down fat migration in your chocolate-filled products. A vibrating table is an important component for tempering chocolate. First the chocolate mixture goes through a dispenser into the chocolate mould. After which the vibrating table is used to evenly distribute the mixture in the mould so that there are no air bubbles. Thus, creating a smooth and consistent final product.

Tempering

You can’t buy happiness, but you can buy chocolate; that’s basically the same thing. We were not surprised to discover that chocolate - to be specific, cocoa beans – was so valuable that it was used as a currency in Mayan times. When making chocolate, cocoa beans need to be dried, fermented, and roasted before using chocolate making equipment to turn them into your favorite chocolate product.

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.

A fresh salad with a walnut oil dressing or a peanut butter sandwich? A bag of roasted cashews or a pack of almond cookies? The common thread among these tasty treats is nut processing equipment. Not all nut ingredients are indeed nuts, botanically speaking. But the machinery that transforms shelled fruits, legumes, and drupes into fried snacks or a paste is similar. As for the food products, there is a nut recipe for every mood and occasion.

Nuts

A snack is a small portion of food ready to eat and simple and fast to prepare. People usually consume snacks during the day between traditional meals such as breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Snack foods include simple products such as nuts, dried fruits, peanuts as well as packaged and processed foods. Puffed corn products made by extrusion or flavored potato chips are examples of processed foods.

During the Middle Ages, sugar sweets were a delicacy only for the rich due to the high cost of sugar. Thankfully, the discovery that sugar could be extracted from sugar beets made sweets affordable for everyone. The sweet category is broad, covering chocolates, chewing gums, sugar candies, and candied/glazed products with sugar. To make these confections, sugar manufacturing equipment needs to cover different steps within the production line such as sugar dissolution, syrup cooking and cooling.

It's always a good time to eat chocolate, but let's face it... During Easter time, it's even more impossible to resist those millions of chocolate figures popping up on the shelves like chocolate eggs or cute chocolate bunnies. But have you ever wondered how the hollow chocolate molding takes place?

Hollow figures

Chocolate milk is a beverage containing milk flavored with chocolate powder or chocolate syrup. Cocoa powder, sweetener, sugar, and carrageenan are mixed with the milk and then pasteurized. As cocoa powder has a higher density than milk, carrageenan is used as a thickening agent to prevent cocoa powder from settling to the bottom.

Continuous chocolate refining

Reduces the grinding process to a single step

Large capacity (750 kg/h)

Achieving a balanced, velvety mouthfeel in chocolate is challenging. Larger particles in chocolate result in a sandy consistency, while too fine a particle makes the end product feel watery. Producing the right chocolate texture at 20-30 microns keeping the ideal Gauss curve requires precise handling of the refining process.


<h2>Continuous chocolate refining</h2>
The P10S-CI Series by Tecno 3 is a high-precision refiner using a proprietary refiner with 10 vertical rolls. Designed with three grinding units, the technology simplifies the large-scale continuous processing of chocolate and chocolate fillings.

Industrial mixing equipment is used to combine two or more solid, liquid or gaseous segregated ingredients into a homogenous single product. The choice of mixing technology depends largely on the physical state of the ingredients and the desired final product. But the sensitivity of the ingredients, the process temperature, and pressure requirements are also critical factors. All these parameters result in a wide range of industrial mixers.

Aerator for fat based masses and crème fillings

Aerators are devices used for mixing air (oxygen transfer) with a liquid such as water or oil to form a homogeneous product. Selecting an industrial aeration system involves choosing a suitable mixing head and considering the desired input and output flows, temperature, level of aeration, properties of the liquid phase, and the degree of automation and pressure control. Aerators are used in the food industry for the production of fat-based center masses and crèmes and in the chemical industry for wastewater treatment. When it comes to water treatment, surface aerators are most commonly used.

Aeration

Homogenization is the process of reducing particle size in mixtures to improve the consistency, uniformity, and stability of the product. The choice of a homogenizer depends on the nature of the product, desired particle size, the physical state of the ingredients, and pressure requirements during the process. Homogenization is widely used in the biotech industry for cell lysis and in the pharmaceutical industry for the emulsification of creams and ointments; it also finds applications in the cosmetics and food industries for improving the consistency and uniformity of various products.

Homogenization

Bakery production includes foods usually made from flour such as bread, biscuits, and cakes. Depending on the baked good you want to make, flour can be mixed with water or other ingredients producing a paste called dough or batter. The dough is then baked in the oven using dry heat. During baking, heat is transferred from the air to the dough, first on the surface and then in the center. Moisture and liquids escape through evaporation.

Nougat is a delicious confection that contains lots of nuts and dried fruits. The word “nougat” itself derives from an old Latin word for nuts. In addition to nuts, the white variety of nougat contains egg whites, honey, and sugar. Similar ingredients make brown nougat variations, except caramelized sugar replaces egg whites as the base ingredient. Depending on your intended scale of production, there are quite a few nougat making equipment you should consider getting.

Decoration equipment adds the finishing touch to your industrially-prepared foods by depositing ingredients in a specified pattern on the surface of the products. Your items pass individually under a system of nozzles that lay the decorating formula precisely and uniformly. Popular in confectionery, decoration is used to differentiate products in the market.

Decorating

Depositing equipment is a very common production line process in the food industry. Whether you want to make muffins or jellies or garnish and decorate cakes, all of this is impossible without the depositing step. Depositing is a form of extrusion used primarily to produce pieces of dough that will be further processed to create several food products. The dough is passed through a depositing machine and poured in equal parts from holes in a die plate with nozzles or a conveyor belt. But that’s not all. Depositors are also used to fill, layer, or cover your food items with other ingredients before proceeding to the next step of the production process which is usually packaging.

Depositing

The extruder was first developed to make lead pipes in the late 18th century. But the extrusion process technique quickly spread to other manufacturing sectors, including food, feed, and biomass products. An extruder machine presses a fluid or solid material through a die. Depending on your use case, extruders adopt single- or twin-screw systems to push the premixed feed material through a barrel. Thermal pressure applied in this step can chemically modify the mixture, so the screw system must be precisely calibrated to achieve the desired result. Finally, a knife head cuts the extruded material into your designed dimensions. Extrusion machinery produces items of a uniform size, shape, and consistency.
