At the present day, when the beans are plentiful on the cacao estates,
but no machines for manufacture exist, the planters prepare a
palatable drink by roasting the beans on a moving shovel or pan over
the open fire, husking them by the time-honoured plan of tossing in
the breeze, and grinding out on a flat stone in much the same manner
as did the old Spaniards. The writer has even seen a little
tobacco-press ingeniously adapted for the purpose of extracting the
butter, the invention of Mr. J.H. Hart, of the Trinidad Botanical
Gardens, a gentleman who has done much in the direction of
investigating the best cacao for seed, and the most favourable methods
of cultivation.
