What role does the grinding process play in achieving a smooth peanut paste?

Grinding is vital for breaking down roasted peanuts, releasing their natural oils, and forming a smooth paste. The process determines the final texture and mouthfeel of the peanut butter. High-shear equipment such as the Colloid Mill GlobeCore is particularly effective, as it finely reduces particle size and creates a homogeneous mixture, ensuring that every spoonful delivers consistent flavor and creaminess.
