Alkalization

Alkalization is a key step in cocoa nib processing, used to reduce bitterness, enhance solubility, and develop rich, uniform color. PROBAT’s systems offer flexible treatment with various agents and intensities, ensuring consistent acidity reduction and effective debacterization through full steam exposure. We also provide alkalization solutions for cocoa liquor, where heating under vacuum efficiently removes excess moisture, acetic acid, and unwanted volatiles—delivering a cleaner, more refined product.
