A process and a system for combining and physically working chocolate-making ingredients are provided. A variable fre- quency drive (35) controls the motor (34) of a conching device (29) to increase the efficiency by which energy is imparted to choc- olate ingredients during conching. This automatic variable speed approach permits the power to be maintained at a relatively con- stant and maximum rate, with the speed being determined by the consistency of the ingredients themselves. Feedback associated with the automatic speed variation can be used in order to reduce conching times and vary the quantity of certain ingredients and the timing of and location of their introduction. By the invention, it is possible to standardize the chocolate product during the conching operation and thereby avoid a post-conching standardization procedure with respect to characteristics such as viscosity and fat content.
