grinding

After the Cocoa butter (fat) is being pressed from the Cocoa liquor, Cocoa cake remains.
Loos Cacao B.V. is able to grind cakes with a fat percentage of 10-12% into Cocoa powder. It is also possible to grind Cocoa cakes with a fat percentage of 0 %.

The sieve residue of the Cocoa powders is depending on the type of Cocoa cakes and the pre-grinding conditions during the production of the Cocoa cakes.
For the grinding of the Cocoa cakes we have three grinding lines to our disposal. Two hammer mills and one classifier mill. With this last mill it is possible to grind on a specific fineness.

The grinding of the cocoa powders is being done with the greatest possible care. Every grinding line is specially build for the grinding of Cocoa and being provided with several magnet and sieves, so that a constant quality for your product is always guaranteed.

After grinding we can pack your Cocoa powder accordingly to your wishes in:

• FIBC’s (big bags)
• 25 kg valve bags
• 50 lbs (22.68 kg) valve bags
• Any other by the customer specified packaging

Of course we can palletize in different forms and pallet sizes and eventually store and load at any desired moment. Also we can put on labels with, any by the customer, desired text.

Besides Cocoa cakes we are also able to grind Cocoa liquor and Cocoa butter into powder. By means of a by our self developed cryogen grinding process we will get the job done.
This makes our company unique in the world. These high fat products can only be packed in cardboard boxes (with an inner liner) or open top bags.
