Project Description
HGFM-1000 Commercial Black Garlic Fermenting Machine
1,000 kg Fresh Garlic Capacity | Large-Batch Production | Automatic Temperature & Humidity Control
The HGFM-1000 Commercial Black Garlic Fermenting Machine design for large-scale black garlic production. With a capacity of approximately 1,000 kg of fresh garlic per batch, it provides an efficient solution for garlic processors, food manufacturers, wholesalers, and commercial black garlic producers.
The machine uses a controlled environment of temperature and humidity to age fresh garlic for several weeks. During the process, garlic gradually develops its characteristic dark color, soft texture, sweet flavor, and rich aroma.
Made from durable stainless steel, HGFM-1000 is designed for repeated commercial production. It provides a more reliable and durable alternative to small plastic black garlic machines.
Working Principle
Black garlic is produced by aging fresh garlic under controlled heat and humidity for an extended period.
First, fresh garlic bulbs are loaded onto the stainless-steel trays. The trays are then placed inside the fermentation chamber.
After the chamber is closed, the heating and humidifying system creates a stable processing environment. Operators can set the required temperature, humidity, and processing time according to their production process.
As the process continues, the garlic gradually changes in color, texture, flavor, and aroma.
The Maillard reaction and other chemical changes during controlled aging help transform fresh garlic into soft, dark black garlic with a sweet, savory, slightly tangy, and caramelized flavor.
The controlled environment also helps improve batch-to-batch consistency, which is important for commercial black garlic production.
Key Features
1. 1,000 kg Large-Batch Capacity
HGFM-1000 can process approximately 1,000 kg of fresh garlic per batch, making it suitable for commercial-scale production.
A larger batch capacity means fewer processing cycles and helps improve overall production efficiency.
2. Stainless Steel Construction
The machine is constructed with stainless steel, providing good durability and making it suitable for long-term food processing applications.
Compared with small machines made primarily from plastic, the stainless-steel construction is better suited to frequent commercial use.
3. Adjustable Temperature & Humidity
Temperature and humidity are important factors in black garlic production.
HGFM-1000 allows operators to adjust temperature and humidity according to their processing requirements and production experience.
This gives producers greater control over the black garlic aging process.
4. Suitable for Different Types of Garlic
The machine can process different types of fresh garlic, including:
- White garlic
- Chinese garlic
- Single-clove garlic
- Multi-clove garlic
- Different garlic varieties and bulb sizes
This flexibility allows producers to use locally available garlic and develop different black garlic products.
5. Stable Processing Environment
The machine maintains a controlled environment throughout the production cycle.
This helps reduce variations caused by changes in ambient temperature and humidity and supports more consistent black garlic quality.
6. Designed for Continuous Commercial Production
HGFM-1000 is designed for businesses that need to process large quantities of garlic regularly.
Its large capacity and durable construction make it suitable for commercial food processing facilities and value-added garlic production.

Applications
HGFM-1000 is suitable for businesses that want to turn fresh garlic into a higher-value processed garlic product.
Garlic Processing Plants
Large garlic processors can add black garlic production to their existing processing lines and increase the value of their raw garlic.
Garlic Farmers
Garlic growers can process part of their harvest into black garlic instead of selling all their garlic as fresh produce.
This creates an additional value-added product and can help diversify their business.
Food Manufacturers
Black garlic can be used as an ingredient in a wide range of food products, including sauces, dressings, marinades, meat products, snacks, and ready-to-eat foods.
Black Garlic Brands
For companies selling packaged black garlic, HGFM-1000 provides the production capacity needed to support larger orders and growing market demand.
Commercial Food Processing
The machine is suitable for businesses looking for a reliable solution for large-batch black garlic production.
What Does Black Garlic Taste Like?
Black garlic has a sweet, savory, and slightly tangy flavor with a much milder garlic taste than fresh garlic.
Its texture is soft, tender, and slightly sticky, often compared to a date.
During controlled aging, the sharp bite of fresh garlic gradually becomes milder. At the same time, deeper flavors develop, with subtle notes of molasses, balsamic vinegar, caramel, tamarind, and dried fruit.
This unique flavor makes black garlic a versatile ingredient for both cooking and food processing.
Why Use a Commercial Black Garlic Fermenting Machine?
Traditional small-scale black garlic production can be difficult to control. Small machines may also have limited capacity and may not be suitable for frequent commercial use.
For commercial producers, the key challenge is not simply processing garlic. It is maintaining a stable and repeatable processing environment over many days.
HGFM-1000 provides:
Large capacity
Process approximately 1,000 kg of fresh garlic per batch.
Better process control
Adjust temperature and humidity according to your production requirements.
Durable construction
Stainless-steel construction is designed for repeated commercial operation.
Flexible production
Process different types of garlic according to your raw materials and market requirements.
Higher production efficiency
Process more garlic in each batch and reduce the number of production cycles.
