Cassava Flour Production Process Description and Flowchart

Cassava flour, also known as cassava whole flour, is a popular ingredient in many cultures, especially in Africa. Traditionally, cassava flour is made from the entire root, preserving the natural flavor and nutritional content. It is a versatile ingredient used in baking, particularly in bread and cakes. As more individuals worldwide embrace the benefits of cassava flour, demand for its production has grown.

At Goodway, we have developed a comprehensive process for producing high-quality cassava flour. The journey typically involves the following steps:

High-Quality Cassava Flour Production Process

1. Cleaning and Washing Cassava Roots

The first step in the production process is to thoroughly clean the fresh cassava roots in clean water. This step is crucial to remove any surface mud and sand, setting a solid foundation for the quality of the final product.

2. Peeling Cassava Roots

After washing, the next step involves peeling the roots to remove the outer brown skin and inner cream layer. Regularly check the water source to ensure it is clean and not contaminated.

3. Grating Peeled Cassava Roots into Mash

Load the grater with the washed roots while the engine is running to grate the peeled cassava roots into a mash. Use stainless steel grating drums and food contact areas for a smooth and hygienic process.

4. De-Watering Mash into Wet Cake

Load the bags onto a hydraulic press and lift and press the jack handle up and down until it becomes hard to move. Repeat the process several times daily until no more water comes out of the bag, producing a firm wet cake. This step is crucial for the formation of the wet cake.

5. Breaking Wet Cake and Sifting Wet Cake into Grits

Break the wet cake into small pieces and remove the lumps to obtain uniform size grits. Ensure all food contact areas are made from stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

6. Drying Grits into Dried Coarse Cassava Flour

Effectively dry the wet grits into dried coarse cassava flour with low moisture content using the principle of heat transfer exchange. This ensures a more reliable and higher quality product.

7. Milling Coarse Flour into Fine Flour

Mill the dried coarse cassava flour into fine cassava flour with a uniform size. Pour the flour into a plastic lining inside a woven polythene sack for packaging.
