Application Note: Chocolate

Chocolate processing, a major segment of the food industry, is a primary application market for process control. The Brookfield TT-200 Process Viscometer provides on-line monitoring of viscosity in the formulation (coating and molding) of fully melted chocolate. The distinct advantage of the viscosity measurements made with the TT-200 Viscometer is that it can be configured to duplicate the measurement of the Brookfield laboratory viscometer which is used to define the behavior characteristics of chocolate. This guarantees reproducibility of viscosity measurements between lab and process.
