Peanut Blancher
The Significance of Peanut Blanching Process
Revolutionize Your Peanut Processing with Our Advanced Peanut Blanchers
The significance of peanut blanching is mainly reflected in 4 aspects: 1) improving the taste of peanut products, 2) enhancing nutritional value, 3) increasing economic value, and 4) achieving product diversification.
Improve taste: peanuts are leguminous crops, containing about 50% lipids, 25% protein, 25% vitamin B1, vitamin B2 vitamin E, and other vitamins. The peanut shell is basically removed during the primary cleaning process. The red skin contains a certain bitterness. After the peanuts are blanched, this bitterness can be removed, making the peanuts more delicious and more suitable for direct consumption or for making various snacks.
Enhance nutritional value: although peanut skins are rich in nutrients, including antioxidants, some people may have allergic reactions to certain ingredients in peanut skins. After blanching, the risk of allergic reactions can be reduced, while allowing consumers to better absorb the nutrition of peanuts.
Increase economic value: peanuts, as a major economic crop, are widely planted around the world and are one of the main raw materials for common snacks. Peanuts are blanched and then exported, which increases the product yield and strengthens the competitiveness of peanut processors in international trade.
Achieve product diversification: blanched peanuts are suitable for making various foods, such as chopped peanuts, diced peanuts, peanut powder, fried peanuts, salted peanuts, peanut cakes, peanut candy, peanut milk, peanut butter, peanut protein powder, and various pastry fillings, etc., to meet the needs of different consumers.
Peanut blanching process is a process in which most peanut processing companies need to be involved. It is roughly divided into 2 categories according to different processing methods, one is dry peanut blanching machine and the other is wet peanut peeling machine. Today we will introduce you to 4 types of blanching machines. Please click on the navigation bar on the right according to your needs to quickly lock in and get the information you need.

Frequently Asked Question
Let Us Know, Whatever You Need for Air Peanut Blanching Machine
Does the air peanut blancher treat peanuts hot or cold?
Air peanut blancher works in ambient temperature, which means the peanut is in normal air temperature, not hot, not cold.
What is the proper value of moisture of the peanuts kernels?
moisture content is 4%, it’s proper moisture for premium blanching. Depends on different processing purpose, moisture can be more or less, but keep the range between 4-6%.
How the compressed air remove the peanut skin?
The peanuts feeding method is quantitative weighing to ensure Each batch weight is consistent. When the peanuts fall into the air blancher chamber, the compressed air produces an instantaneous release of wind force. The wind force makes the peanuts rotate 360 degrees in the blanching chamber. Under the action of high-pressure wind, the peanut red skin peels off in a short time to complete the peeling process, then fall down to the bottom, red skin is sucked out of blancher, collected by air cyclone which is installed outside of the workshop. There are numerous air inlet holes on the circumference of the peeling chamber. High-pressure air enters the peeling chamber through these holes to complete peeling.
How can we control and adjust the blanching time?
Through the air peanut blancher PLC screen, you can adjust the blanching time easily.
How do we clean the air peanut blancher? Include the inside of the machine?
Use an air gun, open the bottom discharge cover, from bottom to top, clean the blanching chamber, separating chamber, connect pipe step by step.
