Wood Fired Khoya Machine – Traditional Taste with Modern Efficiency
A Wood Fired Khoya Machine is specially designed for dairy producers who want to maintain the authentic traditional taste of khoya while increasing production capacity. Unlike gas or electric models, this machine uses firewood as the heating source, giving khoya a rich aroma and natural flavor that many sweet manufacturers prefer.
This machine is ideal for sweet shops, dairy farms, halwai units, temple kitchens, and commercial milk processing centers where large-scale khoya production is required with controlled heating.
Why Choose a Wood Fired Khoya Machine?
Khoya (mawa) preparation requires slow and consistent heating of milk until moisture evaporates and thick solids remain. Traditional open pan methods require heavy labor and constant manual stirring. A wood-fired khoya machine simplifies the process while preserving authenticity.
Key Benefits:
• Maintains traditional smoky flavor
• Lower operating cost compared to LPG or electricity
• Heavy-duty structure for long-term industrial use
• Uniform heating system
• Reduced manual labor
• High production output
• Suitable for rural and semi-urban areas
Working Principle
The machine consists of a large stainless steel boiling pan (kadai) mounted over a brick-lined or MS furnace chamber where wood is burned. Heat is transferred evenly to the milk inside the pan.
An inbuilt manual or motorized agitator continuously stirs the milk, preventing burning or sticking. As the milk thickens, it gradually converts into high-quality khoya with proper texture and color.
Construction Details
The Wood Fired Khoya Machine is manufactured using:
- Food-grade stainless steel inner pan
- Heavy mild steel outer body
- Heat-resistant furnace chamber
- Thick gauge sheet for durability
- Efficient heat circulation design
The pan thickness is designed to withstand high temperatures for continuous use. The furnace area ensures optimal wood combustion for maximum heat efficiency.
Applications
This machine is widely used in:
- Sweet manufacturing units
- Dairy processing plants
- Milk collection centers
- Religious kitchens
- Rural dairy businesses
- Small-scale milk entrepreneurs
It is especially useful in areas where wood is easily available and LPG or electricity costs are high.
Production Capacity
Depending on model selection:
- 50 liters milk batch can produce approximately 10–12 kg khoya
- 100 liters milk batch can produce approximately 20–25 kg khoya
Larger industrial models available up to 500 liters
