Continuous caramel cooker for candy production
In the confectionery industry, achieving a consistent and high-quality caramel is essential. Traditional batch methods can be time-consuming and may not always produce uniform results, leading to inefficiencies and variability in the final product.
Cook and caramelize caramel continuously
The YPP® is a continuous cooker designed by CHOCOTECH to mimic traditional batch caramel-making processes while incorporating modern efficiencies. The unique design allows both cooking and caramelization to occur simultaneously, ensuring a homogenous and well-emulsified caramel mass. The solution is pumped through the bottom of a specially designed tank equipped with multiple steam jackets and is agitated by two counter stirrers that enhance emulsification. The residence time for caramelization is controlled through a special weir design at the top of the tank where the mass is discharged. This cooker supports various capacities ranging from 200 to 1200 kg/h, depending on the recipe requirements, making it suitable for different production scales.
