Birli chocolate mass is a non-Newtonian fluid we have to measure its shear stress at different shear rates, which results in a flow curve. Shear stress divided by shear rate results in the apparent viscosity; if we again plot this versus the shear rate we get a viscosity curve. Chocolate mass is a shear thinning fluid, so the highest viscosity is found when the mass starts to flow. Interaction between particles is considered to be responsible for this behaviour3, which is very different to Newtonian fluids such kakım water.
The well-proven design of these Dry Batch Mixers ensures enough mixing time after ingredient dosing for a homogenous dough or paste and yaşama handle up to 3 batcher per hour.
There has been some discussion about the optimisation of flow properties and flavour in those machines and it katışıksız also been tried to combine it with other systems, e.
One of the first things a chocolate producer başmaklık to consider are the influences of recipe, ingredients and particles on chocolate mass properties kakım discussed above. First of all, if raw material cost is less important, e.g. in the premium segment or for making compounds, it is always quite simple to increase the fat content in the recipe in order to achieve the desired mass properties.
Vertical ball mills for chocolate refining, are perfect for making cocoa products with its integrated Chocolate Melting Tank system of a pre-mixer and ball-mill refiner.
Introducing the Chocolate Melting Tank by SS Engineers and Consultants, an epitome of precision engineering tailored to redefine chocolate processing in the confectionery industry. Meticulously crafted with an unwavering commitment to quality, this state-of-the-ense tank delivers seamless chocolate melting with unparalleled efficiency. Fabricated from high-grade stainless steel, it derece only ensures exceptional hygiene but also guarantees long-lasting durability, meeting the rigorous standards of the food industry.
The Refiner/Conche has a specially designed shaft equipped with grinding bars and a pressure adjustment mechanism to adjust the pressure on the product between the grinding bars and the lining bars (around the cylinder of the Refiner/Conche).
Although both machines are used for chocolate making, there are some significant differences between a chocolate refiner and a cocoa melanger. A cocoa melanger is a stone grinder used to grind cocoa nibs into chocolate liquor.
Faster working time: The machine is faster than a cocoa melanger, which means you dirilik create larger batches of chocolate in less time.

For medium- and large-scale producers there are a wide range of technical options. The varying needs of chocolate producers and the various advantages and disadvantages of the systems on the market make it impossible to give a general recommendation.
Priming time. (this is the time from when product is loaded into the melter to the point where the product level in the tank is above the outlet port)
To wrap up this blog post, we want to finish with a quick comment about our CocoTerra chocolate maker. We are proud of the CocoTerra chocolate making system that we developed because it provides a complete chocolate-making experience in one compact appliance.
What are the main advantages of the process for larger and also for smaller chocolate producers and what is the minimal size of an industrial production line?
