Bean to bar chocolate production equipment

Transform cocoa beans into exquisite single-origin chocolate with complete control over the production process, from roasting to tempering, enhancing both flavor profiles and artisanal quality for chocolate connoisseurs seeking a customized confectionery experience.

Processes and Customizes Bean to Bar Chocolate Production

The Selmi Bean to Bar Chocolate Production Line offers a comprehensive solution for artisanal chocolate makers and gourmet producers seeking control over the entire chocolate-making process. Starting with the Vertiflow Roaster, it efficiently roasts cocoa beans to perfection, ensuring an even roast thanks to its patented airflow technology. The Winnower follows, precisely separating cocoa nibs from the shell. With the Grinder Plus, nibs are transformed into smooth cocoa mass, ready for customization. Refine the mass using the Micron ball refiner, and remove acidity with the Conca concher, accentuating the chocolate’s aroma. The process culminates with precise tempering using the digital-controlled tempering machine, achieving glossy, perfectly crystallized chocolate. This highly customizable line integrates seamlessly with your production floor, handling up to 600 kg daily, and features PLC automation for streamlined operations. Constructed from durable stainless steel, the equipment remains resistant to wear and tear, with easy maintenance facilitated by its modular design. Certified to meet industry standards, this line supports the creation of various products, from single-origin bars to truffles and spreads.
