Peanut butter is made through a multistep process that involves feeding, roasting, cooling, peeling, grinding, and filling. You can know the peanut butter making process clearly from the video above. As a peanut butter machine supplier, Tianzhong Machinery would like to explore how is peanut butter made step by step. Below are a workflow chart and a peanut butter production site for your reference.

Peanut Butter Making Process

1. Feeding

The first step is to feed the raw peanuts (shelled) into the production line. You can employ an automatic elevator to improve the working efficiency.

2. Roasting

To remove moisture and elevate the flavor of peanut butter, the raw peanuts undergo roasting. Tianzhong Machinery offers nut roasting machine, which utilizes a rotating drum and the principles of heat conduction and radiation. This machine can employ various heating methods, such as hot air, gas, or electricity. Besides, our company also provides continuous roasting and cooling all-in-one machines, characterized by high automation, large processing capacity and compact structure. These versatile roasting machines are also suitable for beans, coffee beans, seeds, walnuts, almonds, and other nuts.

3. Cooling

After roasting, the peanuts move to the cooling belt, where fans draw away the heat, ensuring the peanuts reach an optimal temperature.

4. Peeling

Then enter the peeling machine to remove peanut skins, guaranteeing a clean and high-quality product. Our dry peeling equipment is designed for peeling the roasted peanuts.

5. Grinding

The peanuts then will undergo a two-step grinding process — coarse grinding and fine grinding, using two colloid mill machines. These colloid machines play a crucial role in the fine grinding or milling of peanuts to create a smooth and homogenous peanut butter consistency. After grinding, the particle size can reach 50-200 meshes, and the homogeneity can reach more than 95%. Moreover, this machine is made of food-grade stainless steel, which ensures hygiene of peanut butter.

6. Blending

Then the paste will be collected with a mixing tank, where thorough blending occurs. Through blending, it can remove excess air, ensuring a smooth and consistent final product and also preventing peanut butter from curdling.

7. Filling

After cooling, the peanut butter is ready for packaging. Our efficient filling machine fills peanut butter into containers. You can find more videos on our Youtube.
