How to check the quality of cocoa beans

  1. Open 10 bags per ton (about 20 bags) and extract 300g from each
  2. Check 100 bean samples in 2 batches
  3. The standard values for cacao beans used by us are as follows.
  • Fermentation degree 75% or more
    • In 2021, the fermentation rate was about 88%.
  • Maximum mold value 1%
  • Maximum value of defective beans 2%
  • Maximum insect damage 1%
