Laboratory conching solution for small batches of chocolate
In a laboratory setting, developing and refining the flavor profiles of chocolate, compounds, bread spreads, and coatings is essential before large-scale production. Precise control over moisture content and viscosity is critical for ensuring optimal product quality.
Conche small batches with precise control
The CWC 5 by Caotech is a compact laboratory conche designed for handling small batches of chocolate and other similar products. It allows precise control over the conching process, including moisture reduction and viscosity enhancement. With a batch capacity of 5 kg and an installed power of 0.7 kW, this unit is ideal for testing and optimizing recipes before transitioning to full-scale production. It efficiently evaporates volatile acids and moisture, reducing moisture content down to 0.9% or even 0.7% in some cases. The conche’s dimensions are 600 x 550 x 735 mm, and it weighs 70 kg, making it easy to integrate into any lab setup. The CWC 5 is known for its low maintenance costs, low energy consumption, and consistent product quality.
