Maharani Products have introduced Maharani Brand Desiccated coconut
into the market. Our process of manufacturing is conformed to the
standards specified by the coconut development board Hygienic methods
are adopted from de-husking operation up to the point of packing the
coconut flakes and strict quality control methods
throughout the process.
The fresh matured
coconuts are dehusked and deshelled. The deshelling is done by a special
knife. The brown testsa is peeled off using sharp knife. It is cut
open to drain off the water and then washed thoroughly in fresh water
to remove the invert sugars from the inner surface of the kernel.
The kernel is then ground into a fine mass using hammer or pin mills.
The ground mass is blanched with live steam for about 20 minutes to
bring down the microbiological counts. The blanched mass is then dried
in a hot air drier at a temperature of 80-90oC for about 10 hours.

This is done so as to bring
down the moisture content to below 3 per cent. The hot air drier is
provided with a drying chamber consisting of a series of trays.Hot
air is blown into this chamber from an external source through blowers.
The dried mass is tested for moisture, free fatty acid and microbiological
counts. The product is packed in polythene pouches. The brown testa
obtained while peeling the kernel is dried and the oil is extracted.
