Introduction of Chocolate Refiner

Chocolate is made from cocoa products (cocoa liquor, cocoa powder, cocoa butter), white sugar, dairy products and food additives as the basic raw materials, which are scientifically processed by mixing, grinding, refining, tempering, and molding. It is a solid food with unique color, fragrance, delicate and smooth texture and high calorific value.

When producing chocolate, the various materials of chocolate, such as cocoa mass, cocoa powder, cocoa butter, sugar and milk powder, are first mixed into a homogeneous chocolate sauce; the production of this chocolate sauce is finished by a mixer. The device of the mixer includes functions such as mixing, kneading, dosing and feeding. After dosing and feeding according to the formula, it is mixed to form a smooth lipid mass. The cocoa butter becomes a continuous phase and is dispersed among other materials. The various materials are evenly combined and can provide favorable conditions for the normal operation of the refiner.
