Abstract
A peanut treating machine including a supply bin with a hopper bottom, a peanut distributing conical plate distributing peanuts into an annular curtain of free falling peanuts; a high speed rotor with upper and lower discs from which liquid chemical treatment is emitted, the upper disc having larger diameter than the lower disc and having flutes which are substantially deeper in an axial direction than the lower disc; and the upper disc having holes near its inner periphery to provide for the flow of liquid chemical treatment downwardly through the holes so that the liquid chemical treatment is emitted from both top and bottom surfaces of the upper disc in fine particles.
