The Virome of Cocoa Fermentation-Associated Microorganisms. [PDF]
Theobroma cacao plantations are of significant economic importance worldwide, primarily for chocolate production. During the harvest and processing of cocoa beans, they are subjected to fermentation either by microorganisms present in the environment (spontaneous fermentation) or the addition of starter cultures, with different strains directly ...

Exploring cocoa bean fermentation mechanisms by kinetic modelling [PDF]
Compared with other fermentation processes in food industry, cocoa bean fermentation is uncontrolled and not standardized. A detailed mechanistic understanding can therefore be relevant for cocoa bean quality control. Starting from an existing mathematical model of cocoa bean fermentation we analyse five additional biochemical mechanisms derived from ...

Cocoa bean fermentation is a spontaneous process driven by an ordered microbial succession of a wide range of yeasts, lactic acid and acetic acid bacteria, some aerobic sporeforming bacteria and various species of filamentous fungi. The process of cocoa fermentation is a very important step for developing chocolate flavor precursors which are ...

PENGARUH WAKTU PEMERAMAN, AERASI DAN SUHU FERMENTOR TERHADAP KUALITAS BIJI KAKAO
Good postharvest handling must be done to get high-quality cocoa beans. This study aims to determine the effect and relationship of cocoa pod ripening time, aeration and fermentor temperature during fermentation on the pH and fermentation index, and to ...

A mathematical model of cocoa bean fermentation [PDF]
Cocoa bean fermentation relies on the sequential activation of several microbial populations, triggering a temporal pattern of biochemical transformations. Understanding this complex process is of tremendous importance as it is known to form the precursors of the resulting chocolate’s flavour and taste.
