The process is shown in Figure 4. Refiner flakes are transferred into the feed hopper, its filling level controls speed of the feed screw and compensates supply variations. While some cocoa butter is added, the screw feeds the pasting columns. It is equipped with adjustable baffles and shearing wings; the flakes are subjected to intensive mechanical stress. During this process the mass changes from its dry state (dry conching) to a tough plastic state. Cleaned conditioned air is supplied by fan. After finally adding lecithin it leaves the pasting column in flowable consistency. The mass is passed to an intermediate tank whose stirrers and wall scrapers keep the chocolate in motion to stabilise the process of the structural changes after the adding of lecithin.

The Thouet RC and DRC are genuine ‘dry’ conches – they are filled with dry chocolate flake and will keep the product ‘dry’ through out the conching process until the very end when the cocoa butter and lecithin is added.

Physically measurable properties of chocolate masses, like flow attributes or hardness, are correlated to sensory perceptions such kakım snap, hardness, melting and the like. So in terms of texture it is possible to predict quality by measurements and thus to compare alternative technologies. This is much more difficult in terms of flavour. Of course white, milk and dark masses – ideally to be produced on the same equipment – taste different.

The new replacement tumbler showed up earlier this week so I kaÅŸ it up to refine some sugar. I put the about three cups of sugar and three cups of SS shot in a 2 quart glass Chocolate SINGLE TUBE BALL REFINER jar.
