Tempering is in our DNA
Revealing the most striking advance in the chocolate tempering process since 1946.
Following 1946, when Dr. Kaj Christian Sophus Aasted invented the world’s first patented continuous chocolate plate temperer, Aasted has been continuously advancing and perfecting the chocolate tempering process. With more than 100 years of experience in the chocolate industry, our tempering machines are embedded with unique know-how from dedicated and passionate engineers and chocolate specialists.
We are proud to introduce you to a new standard in the chocolate tempering process!
Introducing a new standard
StellaNova – unsurpassed quality in chocolate tempering with a brand new process.
The new StellaNova, like no tempering machine before, has separate cooling and shearing processes. It’s now possible to set the exit temperature as low as 27ºC while keeping the highest quality of crystals; you can raise production line output up to 40% by needing much shorter cooling time. The machine is built entirely in stainless steel and has a unique planet wheel design that ensures 400% more shear without creating additional shear heat and saves up to 30% of energy compared to the traditional tempering machines.
- Hygienic stainless steel design
- Contains 75% less chocolate than traditional tempering machines
- The highest quality in chocolate tempering
- Does not create ß4 crystals
- Shorter cooling time, hence more throughput in the production line
- Smaller motor and no required reheat saves up to 30% of energy
- No add-ons required
- Compact design
- Easy to operate
Stainless steel hygienic design
StellaNova is the only tempering machine in the market built entirely in stainless steel materials, from its unique planet scraper wheels to all other elements that are in contact with the chocolate. Being stainless steel makes it significantly safe and available to use for food production, in other words, it lives up to the latest food-grade standards.
StellaNova saves up to 30% energy
The new StellaNova has a smaller motor and column. The new design holds up to 75% less chocolate while still being extremely efficient.
StellaNova’s chocolate tempering process doesn’t require a reheat. Combined, with having a smaller motor and stack, these two factors save up to 30% energy, compared to traditional tempering machines.
Achieve up to 40% shorter cooling time
The new StellaNova is one of a kind chocolate tempering machine. It has separate cooling and shearing processes. Meaning you can cool chocolate to a remarkably low temperature while maintaining the same amount of crystals. StellaNova lets you achieve shorter cooling time and raising production line output up to 40%.
Pushing boundaries in tempering
Unmatched degree in crystallization
With the new StellaNova, it’s now possible to choose exit temperature, as low as 27ºC and temper index separately, while maintaining the highest quality of crystals, giving you the possibility to raise production line output up to 40% by needing much shorter cooling time.
400% more shear with unique planet scraper wheel design
The new planet scraper wheel design ensures a greater shear, more uniform shear velocity and no possibility for the mass to bypass the cooling surfaces. Further, the innovative design provides 400% more shear without creating additional shear heat and significantly saves energy.
The mass landscape.
One type fits all
With the brand new StellaNova you can temper any type of chocolate. StellaNova is a machine that can handle all chocolate viscosities and fat contents.
New patented software
The most simple and user-friendly interface ever made for a tempering machine.
While other tempering machines have complicated to use interface, our new patented software has a user-friendly and intuitive one. With the new software, it is effortless to adjust the exit temperature and the temper index separately. The user interface is developed for users by users and is specially produced by Aasted for the chocolate industry.
