Aeration system for sugar masses
In confectionery production, achieving the desired texture for aerated sugar products can be a complex task. This challenge often involves precise heating and controlled whipping to create consistent quality in products like nougat and marshmallow.
Produces aerated sugar masses with precise whipping
The TURBOWHIP from CHOCOTECH is a specialized system designed to produce aerated sugar masses with precision. It consists of two main vessels: a thermosiphon cooker and a pressurized whipping tank. The thermosiphon cooker heats the sugar mass using an integrated steam coil and can operate at atmospheric pressure or under vacuum. Its large volume minimizes the risk of the product being sucked into the vacuum pump, allowing for optimal foaming. After cooking, the vacuumed sugar mass is transferred to the pressurized whipping tank where it is mixed with a whipping agent solution, such as egg white. This tank uses pressure to whip the mass into a fine-pored foam. The TURBOWHIP supports both batch and continuous downstream processes, making it versatile for various production needs. It can handle products like nougat, frappé, marshmallow, chewy candy, high-boiled and soft torrone, Nougat de Montélimar, and Halwa-Tahina. The system is available in different throughput capacities: TURBOWHIP 300 (300 kg/h), TURBOWHIP 600 (600 kg/h), and TURBOWHIP 1000 (920 kg/h), which includes 15% foam additions.
