ABSTRACT:
An autoclave for processing cocoa liquor, wherein for the effectuation of all the processing steps of a cocoa liquor involved, additionally to inlet (5) and discharge ports for the product, heater means, stirrer means, and level and temperature (7) gages, there are provided an intake port (11a) for the infeed of water, treated roasting hot air, steam or process solution, in conjunction with a neutral gas intake port (11), a suction port (11b) for vacuum forming, a thermal treatment means (9) selectively associable with a source of a heated fluid or with a source of a cooling fluid, means (16,34) of conveying and centrifuging the mixture of product plus water or infeed solution, means (22) of dispersing the product in the form of a free-falling umbrella-like layer, and means (32,28,33) of displacing the product in opposite directions. The various steps may be carried out in succession, or at least partly simultaneously, and the same may include processing steps, such as conching, which could only be carried out hitherto in the course of subsequent treatments of chocolate.
The autoclave (1) thus affords a faultless chocolate product, as well as a decrease of the production time therefor and of energy consumption.
