Precision Sorting for Perfection: Our Advanced Equipment for Hancheng Dahongpao Sichuan Peppercorns

Why Professional Sorting Matters for Premium Sichuan Peppercorns

At Eastray Spice, we take pride in delivering only the finest Hancheng Dahongpao Sichuan peppercorns to chefs and home cooks worldwide. What sets our peppercorns apart isn’t just their 2,000-year heritage or mountain-grown terroir—it’s our state-of-the-art sorting technology that ensures unmatched quality in every batch.

Our 6-Stage Sorting Process: Combining Tradition with Technology

To meet the strictest standards for premium Sichuan peppercorns, we employ a multi-layered mechanical and optical sorting system:

1. Vibrating Screening Machines

  • Removes stems, leaves, and debris

  • Separates peppercorns by size for uniform texture

  • Ensures only plump, intact berries proceed

2. Gravity Separation

  • Eliminates lightweight or hollow peppercorns

  • Guarantees optimal density and flavor concentration

3. Triple-Pass Optical Color Sorters

  • High-resolution cameras scan each peppercorn at 360°

  • AI-powered algorithms detect imperfections in color and shape

  • Precision air ejection removes discolored or defective berries

  • Final output: 95%+ split rate, less than 2% impurities

The Result? Perfectly Sorted Sichuan Peppercorns

Thanks to our industrial-grade equipment, every batch of Hancheng Dahongpao achieves:
Consistent size and color (vibrant red with no dull spots)
Maximum aroma and numbing potency (má là)
Zero foreign matter – just pure, clean peppercorns

Why Choose Our Machine-Sorted Peppercorns?

  • Higher quality than hand-sorting alone – Machines detect flaws the human eye misses

  • Faster processing without sacrificing care – Maintains freshness from harvest to packaging
