Equipment
Melanger is an ideal tool for chocolatiers to make chocolate liquor from cocoa nibs. The melanger is specially designed to grind cocoa nibs for 24 hours or more. The conical stones rotate on granite bottom stone of the vessel, crushing the nibs and reducing the particles of sugar and cocoa into 15 -18 micron sized fine cocoa liquor.
Conical roller stones provide more crushing area for better grinding efficiency. Crushing does not generate heat and it preserves the nutrients and fine flavors while grinding chocolate, nut butters, hummus and other gourmet foods.
The roller stones and wiper are attached to the stainless steel center shaft, and the whole roller stone assembly, is removable as one piece. They are easy to clean, handle and store.
The roller stone assembly is locked into the lid for reproducible tension. The conical roller stones serve dual function – conching in addition to grinding.
