Selmi Roasters

Step 1: Roast the Cocoa Beans

Selmi Roasters uses the patented air cyclone system – vertiflow® to roast cocoa beans, coffee, hazelnuts, almonds, pistachios, barley, etc. The roasting temperature of the air, as well as of the inside of the product, can be adjusted according to preference to ensure precise processing. The programs can be set to four variable length and temperatures.

Step 2: Separate Nibs from Husks

The winnower combines high functionality with value in bean to bar chocolate making. It’s capable of first breaking up the bean, eliminating the need for an extra manual step. It is outfitted with separate collecting containers for the nibs and husks.

Selmi Grinder

Step 3: Crush Nibs Into Chocolate Paste

The rotating pins inside the Selmi Grinder crush roasted cocoa beans (or other dried product) into a gritty paste. This method allows for quick processing of cocoa nibs into chocolate liquor. The final product particle size is reduced to roughly 200-250 microns.

Step 5: Remove Negative “Acidity” & Residual Humidity

The mixer, located at the centre of the heated tank, has the task of continually mixing the chocolate, oxygenating it in order to obtain, within a working cycle of 8 to 12 hours, a homogeneous and flawless mixture.

Selmi Vibro

Step 6: Remove Large Particles

The Vibro removes oversized particles in a bean to bar process in order to ensure a smooth and uniform chocolate end product. The vibrating motion filters out undesirable grittiness that has made it through the winnowing, grinding, and refining stages.
