Wet conching system for chocolate production
Achieve optimal chocolate viscosity and flavor by effectively removing volatiles, acids, and moisture through efficient thin-film evaporation, enhancing the quality and taste of your final product.
Mixes and Homogenizes Chocolate Masses
The CWC 1000 from Caotech is a high-performance wet conching system engineered to enhance the production of chocolate and related coatings. This unit specializes in mixing, homogenization, and the removal of volatiles, acids, and moisture, employing a thin-film evaporation technique. With a capacity of up to 1,000 kg/h, it efficiently processes chocolate masses to improve viscosity and taste. The system integrates seamlessly with a mixing tank and circulation system, supporting continuous, high-speed operations and optimizing your production line. The CWC 1000 is designed to reduce energy consumption with its low power requirement of 13 kW and offers minimal maintenance due to its robust construction. It suits applications in the food and confectionery industries, delivering high-quality chocolate bars, truffles, and compound coatings with consistent product quality and efficiency.
