摘要:
Dark, red and dark, brown natural cocoa products are disclosed. The cocoa products may be cocoa liquor or cocoa powder. Processes for producing the dark, red and dark, brown natural cocoa products are also disclosed.
摘要:
Cocoa components having enhanced levels of cocoa polyphenols, processes for producing the cocoa components while conserving a significant amount of the cocoa polyphenols, compositions containing the cocoa components or the cocoa polyphenols, and methods of using the cocoa components or the cocoa polyphenols for improving the health of a mammal are described. The cocoa components include partially and fully defatted cocoa solids, cocoa nibs and fractions derived therefrom, cocoa polyphenol extracts, cocoa butter, chocolate liquors, and mixtures thereof. The invention provides processes for extracting fat from cocoa beans and for otherwise processing cocoa beans to yield a cocoa component having conserved concentration of polyphenols relative to the starting materials.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method of separating cocoa mass into cocoa butter and cocoa cake by means of a press (1) comprising one or more pressing elements (6) in turn comprising a pot (7) having a cavity (8) for receiving cocoa mass to be pressed, a squeezer (9) located at least partially in the cavity (8), and at least one filter (11) disposed in front of the squeezer (9) and/or on the side of the cavity (8) opposite the squeezer (9), which method comprises the steps of filling the cavity or cavities (8) with cocoa mass, exerting pressure on the pressing element(s) (6) thus pressing cocoa butter through the filter(s) (11), releasing pressure from the pressing element(s) (6), and opening the pot(s) (7) to remove the cocoa cake(s) from the cavity or cavities (8). Prior to releasing the pressure from the pressing element(s) (6), cocoa butter is purged from at least the space(s) (13) behind the filter(s) (11).
摘要:
The invention relates to a press (1) for separating fat containing mass, e.g. cocoa mass, into liquid fat and cake, comprising a frame (2), a plurality of pressing elements (6) disposed in the frame (2), a gutter (17) for transporting the liquid fat, and a conveyor (15) for receiving the cakes, positioned beneath the pressing elements (6). At least one collector (20) for the liquid fat, which collector (20) is movable between at least two positions, a first position beneath the pressing elements (6) to collect the liquid fat flowing from the pressing elements (6) during pressing and to transport the liquid fat to the gutter (17) and a second position to allow cakes (16) to fall past it and into the conveyor (15).
