Licorice Extract Production
Licorice roots are harvested in the month of
autumn, they are then dried, cleaned and cut
into smaller pieces so that they can be easily
grinded, the roots are then crushed by the
grinding mills to a pulp. This pulp is then
transferred to the boilers and boiled in water.
Thereafter the extract is concentrated by
allowing a portion of water to evaporate. The
licorice extract can also be filtered to eliminate
some impurities found in the Licorice extract
feed. It can be in a dried or thick black mass
form.
