Abstract

See full text

A method and an apparatus for continuous tempering of in particular a chocolate mass which passes through a cooling zone (A) having a final crystal formation area (K) and a subsequent reheating zone (G). The cooling medium flow, which overflows the crystal formation area (K), is controlled in response to measured values of the temperature of the chocolate mass at the crystal formation area. This ensures that the heat energy transport from the chocolate mass is continuously adapted to the instantaneous requirement, irrespective of the inlet temperature of the mass and the flowing chocolate mass amount per unit of time. It is hereby surprisingly possible to make a tempered chocolate mass having a predetermined constant content of stable beta crystals.
