The roasting stage is one of the most important steps in the manufacture of cocoa powder. In the roasting process, a distinctive flavor and color are formed, besides that it will reduce the acid content in cacao, cell wall swelling is caused by protein hydrolysis and water absorption. However, the color and flavor formed still vary greatly depending on the length of the roasting process, temperature, and the tools used. The Field Work Practice (PKL) activities carried out aim to find out the cocoa processing process to become the final product. There are two types of cocoa produced at the Pagergunung factory, namely edel, and bulk types. The stages of cocoa processing carried out at the Pagergunung Factory include the stages of receiving, fermenting, drying, tempering, sorting, mixing, and packaging. One of the processes that determine the distinctive flavor and color of chocolate products is the roasting process. The roasting process carried out at the Pagergunung Glenmore Factory is carried out as much as 10 kg per roast at a temperature of 100°-120°C to make the texture of the cocoa beans more crunchy even though there is a weight loss of 1.5 kg. With this roasting method, the signature chocolate of the Glenmore Pager Mountain Factory is produced.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
