Hazelnut cleaning is the first critical step in quality assurance. Cleaning machine vacuums the hazelnuts with green husk into the milling unit and takes the green husk out.
Drying is a next and extremely important operation, necessary to reduce the moisture content of the fruit and preserve its freshness over time. Following harvest, hazelnuts are transported to special dryers heated to 30 ° / 40 ° C. The result of this operation is a dry and stable hazelnut that can be preserved in shell for longer durations, without any adverse effect to the quality of hazelnut. With special laboratory and moisture analyzing equipment we ensure consistent quality of dried hazelnuts
