    DCM MELANGER 100
    DCM MELANGER 100 A LARGE-CAPACITY, LOW-IMPACT REFINER FOR BEAN-TO-BAR AND NUT-TO-SPREAD MAKERS

    Our DCM Melanger 100 is a US-made, custom-built, all-Stainless Steel, tilting refiner that is plug and play ready. It has a maximum capacity of 100 lbs/45 kgs per batch.

    This  professional, space-efficient model is a low-impact refiner for making fine chocolate, nut and seed butters from scratch. Low-impact refining allows for maximum retention of nutritional value while at the same time preserves the shelf-life of the product.

    The DCM Melanger 100 features high-quality, all-natural granite stones that refine particle size down to less than 20 microns. This machine creates great shear, enabling a faster working time. In addition, the processing efficiency allows for maximum retention of the beans’ inherent qualities therefore honoring their true potential to express organoleptic (fine flavor) profiles.

    The DCM Melanger 100’s high-efficiency, continuous duty motor is engineered specifically to run 24/7 days year-round without the risk of overheating. No external cooling fans are needed. Machine can be safely operated for long refining times at varying speeds due to a unique motor design. The variable frequency drive system saves electricity and runs the machine efficiently. This system meets or exceeds the latest international energy efficiency standards.

    A fine-tension controller adjusts stone pressure during the refining/conching stage allowing makers greater control over the finished product.

    Machine can be operated by single person.  Door-to-door shipping worldwide.

    Optional upgrades are available for this model.
