Garri processing machine

Cassava Garri(Gari) Process Description and Flowchart:

SIDA delivers the whole range of equipment for Garri processing industry from Garri processing machinery to complete the Garri processing production line.

Multiple distinct operations are required in Garri processing: washing, peeling, grating, de-watering, breaking & sifting, Garri roasting, milling, and packaging. We provide below a brief description of the main steps of the Garri(gari) production process.

Processing cassava roots into garri takes several steps as follows:

1,Cleaning and Washing Cassava Roots

Wash the fresh cassava roots in clean water to remove the surface mud and sand. It's the first step of Garri(gari) process and very important for the quality of final Ggarri(gari).

2,Peeling Cassava Roots

Peel the washed cassava roots to remove the outer brown skin and inner thick cream layer. The water source should be checked regularly to ensure it is not dirty or contaminated.

3,Grating Peeled Cassava Roots into Mash

Load the grater with washed roots while the engine is running to grate peeled cassava roots into mash. The grating drum and all food contact areas should be made

from stainless steel.

4,Fermenting Mash on the Fermentation Rack

Collect the cassava slurry into a clean polythene sack and tie, then bagged cassava slurry can be left in the fermentation rack for one or more days before de-watering, allow the milky water to drain freely from the bags.

5,De-watering Mash into Wet Cake

Load the bags directly on to a hydraulic press. Lift and press the jack handle up and down until it becomes hard to move. Repeat the process several times each day until no more water comes out of the bag to produce a firm wet cake.

6,Breaking Wet Cake and Sifting Wet Cake into Grits

Breaking the wet cake into small pieces (grits) and remove the lumps to obtain uniform size grits(wet coarse Garri). All food contact areas should be made from stainless steel

7,Roasting Grits into Dried Coarse Garri(Gari)

Roasting the wet grits into dried coarse Garri(gari) with low moisture content using an automated Garri fryer made of stainless steel material and with electricity, natural gas, firewood or charcoal as the heat source. The final Garri(gari) is usually recognized from the color of palm oil fortified Garri or non-palm oil fortified Garri and crispy hand feel of particles.

8,Milling Coarse Garri into Fine Garri(Gari)

Milling the dried coarse Garri into fine Garri(gari) with the uniform size, then pour the fine Garri into a plastic lining inside a woven polythene sack.

The modern garri production process line will reverse the trend of migration to the city and make the youths interested in garri production. The modern garri production process line will create local livelihood opportunities that will enable businesses and households to thrive in their local domains rather than be forced to migrate to overcrowded cities It will create jobs and generate sustainable prosperity to reduce poverty in the rural areas.

Modern garri processing using the local cassava will build a local human resource base in the impact areas; which is the surest guarantee of sustainable growth.
