We have eaten a lot of cocoa products, such as chocolate, cocoa cake, and some beverages. These are all foods made from cocoa powder and are liked by many people. From cocoa beans to cocoa powder, they also need to be processed by machines. What are the steps needed to process cocoa beans to cocoa powder?
Cocoa bean processing before processing
First, the cocoa bean fruit needs to be picked from the tree, and then the cocoa bean is peeled from the shell. It can be opened with a cocoa pod opener. After the cocoa bean is obtained, it needs to be fermented and dried before proceeding to the next step. During the processing, the freshly picked cocoa beans are white, and the flavor of the cocoa beans is improved through fermentation, followed by a drying process. It can be dried directly in the sun. If there is good weather, it only takes a few days. In this process, it needs to be turned and selected. Natural drying is greatly affected by the weather and geographic location, and it can also be dried in a dryer. More convenient and faster.
Cocoa powder production
Six steps are required from cocoa beans to cocoa powder: roasting, peeling, refining, pressing, crushing, and grinding cocoa beans. The main purpose of roasting cocoa beans is to make them easy to peel off. Only after the peeling, can the beans be refined. The beans will generate cocoa butter during the grinding process. After cocoa butter is refined, the cocoa butter contains a lot of cocoa Oil can be extracted with a hydraulic oil press, and then the cocoa cake will be produced in this process. The cocoa cake is the most direct product we make of cocoa powder. Because cocoa powder is very hard, it is not conducive to subsequent grinding. Use a crusher for crushing, and the rest is the most important grinding powder. The cocoa powder after grinding is very uniform, and then it can be sold directly after packaging.

What foods can cocoa powder be made into
Many delicacies can be made with cocoa powder, such as cakes, chocolates, drinks, and ice cream. However, in the process of making chocolate, the fineness of cocoa powder is very important. If the fineness of cocoa powder does not meet the requirements, it will cause the chocolate to taste rough, so grinding is very important. What foods can cocoa powder be made into? We need to use a professional Cocoa powder processing machine to produce
