Cocoa Bean Grinding Machine Small Chocolate Stone Grinder Melanger Chocolate Melanger

It is a small commercial chocolate stone grinder (melanger) designed to grind crushed cocoa beans and other ingredients into chocolate. It combines grinding, refining and tempering/melting functions in a durable 304 stainless steel single-machine design.

The melanger is offered in multiple capacity options: 10L, 25L, 60L and 100L so you can choose the size that fits your production needs.

Key specs include power 0.37 kW, approximate weight 158 kg (may vary by model), dimensions 500 × 508 × 872 mm (standard model), 304 stainless steel construction and customizable voltage options (220V/380V).

It can grind crushed cocoa beans and is also suitable for milk, fruit, wheat, nuts, flour, vegetables and similar food materials used in confectionery and processing applications.

The product is listed with CE and ISO certifications. Contact the supplier for copies of certificates and compliance documentation if required.

Yes — the supplier provides field installation, commissioning and operator training as part of the service offering. Confirm the scope and any travel costs with the seller before purchase.

Yes — the machine supports customizable voltage options (e.g., 220V or 380V). Confirm the required phase (single- or three-phase) with the supplier to match your facility electrical supply.

Grinding time depends on batch size, recipe and desired particle size. For chocolate, refining/conching can take from several hours to multiple days. Perform trial runs to determine optimal processing time for your formulation.

Exterior and stainless steel parts should be wiped and cleaned with food-safe cleaners. Always disconnect power before cleaning. Stone grinding surfaces should be cleaned per supplier instructions to avoid damage — typically by scraping, brushing and rinsing with warm water; avoid immersing electrical components. Regularly inspect belts, bearings and seals and follow the supplied maintenance schedule.

This melanger is built for commercial and small-batch production (factories, bakeries, catering and snack manufacturers). Its weight and capacity make it less suitable for casual home use.

You can produce a range of chocolate types—dark, milk or nut-based chocolates—by adjusting ingredients, conching time and tempering steps. For milk chocolate include milk powder and sweeteners as required by your recipe.

Standard safety practices include ensuring the machine is earthed, using appropriate guards for moving parts, disconnecting power before servicing, and following operator training. Ask the supplier for the machine’s safety manual and any optional safety accessories.

The supplier typically provides spare parts, field installation, commissioning and training. Contact them for details on parts availability, lead times and any recommended spare kits for bearings, belts and seals.

Yes. Cocoa beans should be properly roasted, winnowed and crushed into nibs prior to using the melanger. The melanger is designed to refine and conch crushed beans/nibs into smooth chocolate rather than perform roasting or winnowing.

Contact the supplier or manufacturer with your desired capacity (10L/25L/60L/100L), required voltage and destination. They will provide pricing, lead time, shipping options, warranty details and any required installation/training arrangements.
