Cassava Processing Equipment Referrals: Graters to Dryers

Buying the wrong machine can sink a small cassava business before its first sale. Cassava Pathway does not manufacture or sell equipment, though we happily recommend a fabricator in Enugu we trust.

That workshop builds the full range of cassava machines, and many people we referred now run equipment from it.

Machines Covered

MachineStage of processing
PeelerRemoving skin and rind before washing
GraterTurning peeled roots into mash for garri, starch, or fufu
Screw pressSqueezing water from grated mash
SifterBreaking pressed cake and screening lumps
Fryer or roasterRoasting sieved mash into garri
DryerDrying flour, starch, chips, or peel mash
MillGrinding dried chips or cake into flour

How a Referral Works

  1. Tell us what you plan to produce, how many bags of roots you expect to handle daily, and your budget.
  2. We suggest which machines you truly need first, since many beginners overbuy.
  3. We connect you with the Enugu fabricator, and you agree specifications, price, and delivery directly.

Advice Before You Buy

Our own unit started small, with a kitchen knife, blender, oven, and sieves, so expensive machines are not always the first step.

Knife peeling still beats machines for small batches, a trade-off weighed in peeling machines tested.

Every major machine type is compared in the processing equipment guide, and my own setup spending in starting small with flour.
