Cocoa is a fruit of tropical origin whose seed or beans serve as raw material to obtain chocolate in its various forms. To use the cocoa fruit, the shell must be broken and when opened you will find the seed covered with a whitish, viscous and very sweet membrane called mucilage, which is removed during the fermentation process. Once this process is finished, the grains are dried using sunlight most of the time or artificial drying when the rainy season coincides with the harvest. In this process, various air movements are carried out to obtain low levels of humidity from the grain and better product quality.
