The diagram depicts the process of making chocolate.
Overall, the procedure is complex and includes several steps, starting with collecting ripe pods, followed by treating the chocolate in different ways and ending with forming the plain chocolate. Moreover, this process involves mostly machinery.
Picking full-grown pods from cocoa trees starts the whole process. Once cocoa beans have been harvested, they are fermented for two to ten days and spread in the sun during which heat and natural microbes break down sugars in the pulp. Then, those beans are fired under 120-150calciumm.
Moving on to the next stage, the outer shell of the beans, unnecessary for the process, is taken out by being crushed. In the following steps, the inner part of the beans is crumbled with a conching machine, after which the ready liquid is tipped into molds to be shaped. In the end, the molded chocolate is prepared for packaging.
