概要 |
Cocoa powder is in higher demand due to its application in numerous food products. To meet this demand, there is a need for efficient cocoa powder processing equipment. Hence, this research study seek...s to develop a combined cacao bean huller-pulverizer machine for cocoa powder processing and evaluate its machine performance in terms of capacity and efficiency. A Central Composite Design (CCD) with a two-factor experiment was used to evaluate the performance of the developed machine. Results show that the average output capacity and efficiency of the developed combined cacao bean huller-pulverizer machine is about 5.56 kg/h and 83.37%, respectively. The machine was financially feasible based on the results of its financial analysis. Furthermore, the fineness modulus of the output product was compared to a commercialized cocoa powder, and it has no significant difference. This result indicates that the cocoa powder produced by the machine is acceptable.続きを見る
