La fermentación de pequeñas muestras en investigaciones sobre el procesado del cacao

Rohan trays were sub-divided by plywood walls into ten compartments in order to cure cacao samples as small as 3000 grams, when all compartments were filled with cacao beans. The position of the samples within the tray did not affect their curing. Tests with smaller samples of 1500 and 750 grams, ob...

Sumario:Rohan trays were sub-divided by plywood walls into ten compartments in order to cure cacao samples as small as 3000 grams, when all compartments were filled with cacao beans. The position of the samples within the tray did not affect their curing. Tests with smaller samples of 1500 and 750 grams, obtained by increasing the number of divisions, gave satisfactory curing, but further tests are needed to determine the minimum size.
