Cashew Kernel Humidification Chamber
Condition moisture for clean peeling
A humidification chamber that finely re-conditions kernel moisture after drying — the sweet spot where the skin peels off cleanly without cracking the kernel.
The TTQ Cashew Kernel Humidification Chamber re-conditions the moisture of dried kernels to the narrow window where the testa skin releases cleanly but the kernel stays intact. After borma drying kernels can be brittle; a short, controlled humidification restores just enough moisture — typically a point or two — so peeling maximises whole-kernel yield. It is a sealed chamber with regulated humidity and dwell time.

Built for yield & uptime
Controlled moisture
Restores just enough moisture to loosen the skin without re-wetting the kernel.
Less peeling breakage
Conditioned kernels peel cleanly, protecting whole-kernel grades.
Regulated RH + dwell
Humidity and time are held to a recipe for repeatable conditioning.
Protects wholes
Takes the brittleness out of dried kernels before they reach the peeler.

Where it fits in the process
Sits between drying and peeling: brittle dried kernels are briefly re-humidified to the ideal peeling moisture, then fed to the peeler.
