In the world of nixtamalization, every detail matters. From the quality of the corn to the way it’s cooked, everything influences the flavor, texture, and yield of the final tortilla. One of the most significant innovations in recent years has been the ALITECH reactor, developed by Nextamalli.
So, the question is: Why choose an ALITECH reactor instead of sticking with traditional methods or conventional equipment? Here are the key reasons that make this technology a smart investment for your tortilla business.
⚙️ 1. Faster and more efficient cooking
One of the main advantages of an ALITECH reactor is reduced cooking time. While traditional methods can take 6 to 8 hours, ALITECH prepares nixtamal in just 2.5 hours.
This allows for:
- More production shifts per day
- Lower energy consumption
- Higher profitability
🔥 2. Gas and energy savings
Thanks to its advanced thermal design, the ALITECH reactor helps save up to 40% in gas compared to other systems. This is crucial in markets with fluctuating gas prices.
What’s more, electric models are compatible with solar energy, making your operations even more sustainable.
đź§Ş 3. Better corn yield
It’s not just about speed — it’s about getting more from every grain of corn. With ALITECH, you can produce:
- Up to 2.2 kg of masa per kg of cooked corn
- Up to 1.8 kg of tortillas, depending on the corn type
This boosts your efficiency and overall profitability.
đź’§ 4. Less waste, cleaner processes
The ALITECH reactor is designed to minimize solid waste and simplify the corn washing process. This leads to:
- Optimized water usage
- Shorter wash and rest times
- Improved hygiene in your workspace
