Butter Churning Machine
A butter churning machine (malaxer) is a professional food processing machine that homogenizes the butter obtained after churning, removes excess water, and brings it to the desired consistency.
The primary functions and features of these machines are as follows:
Homogenization and Consistency: Ensures the product achieves a smooth and homogeneous texture and attains a standard luster without compromising its crystalline structure.
Removal of Excess Water: Excess water and buttermilk (moisture) remaining in the butter during the churning process are removed. Some models feature special valves for draining this water.
Salting: Helps distribute the salt, added as desired, evenly throughout the product.
Hygienic Construction: They are typically manufactured from AISI 304 grade stainless steel to comply with food safety regulations.
Design: They are generally designed as open-top systems equipped with mixers, and various models are available ranging from small to medium-scale (e.g., 100 kg capacity).
Difference from a Butter Churn:
While a churning machine is used to separate the fat from cream by agitating it to produce butter, a butter-making machine is used to process this butter and bring it to its final form.
