    GFI grinds between 80,000 to 90,000 metric tons of cocoa beans annually in Indonesia, generating approximately 13,000 metric tons of cocoa shells per year, which contain 3.8-5.5% moisture, 3.4% fat, 8.8% ash, 14.1% protein, 0.1% sugars, 2.8% starch, 18% crude fiber, 7.1% pentosans, 5.1% tannins, 1.12% organic acids, and 1.3% theobromine. The main issues facing cocoa production in Indonesia are low productivity and quality of cocoa beans, with Sulawesi beans often unfermented compared to fermented beans

    Cocoa Shell

    1) Production of cocoa in GFI. Per annum GFI grind 80,000 mton to 90.000 mton cacao beans. 2) Average shells generated 14% p.a. 11,200 -12,600 mt p.a. or we can say average : 13,000 mt. pa.

    Composition of Cacao Shell


    moisture Fat Ash Protein Sugars Starch Crude Fiber Pentosans Tannins Organic acids Theobromine 3.8 5.5 % 3.4 8.8 14.1 0.1 2.8 18.0 7.1 5.1 1.12 1.3

    The main problem of cocoa plantation in Indonesia is the low productivity and quality of cocoa beans Sulawesi cacao beans are mostly unfermented, and Ghana and other West African mostly fermented. Fermentation and drying is needed to produce a good quality of cocoa beans related to flavour and taste
