Cracking cocoa beans using a Brazilian coffee sheller
Posted in: Geek Gear - Cool Tools (Read-Only)
Hello to everyone!
I am from Brazil and I bought one of these Botini coffee crackers for cracking cacao.
It's very cheap, about U$ 50,00 (without freight).
It has an adjustable gap, not much, but enought for different sizes of cacao. I don't have a cranckendstein to compare, but I think this one makes a pretty good job.
I'll try to post some photos of the nibs, dust and shells.
