Ivory Coast 68% Dark Chocolate making kit

I get it. I write these reviews extolling this or that rugged tobacco, lingering aged hop bitterness and notes of turtle shell and you ask yourself:

1. What is the Alchemist imbibing?
2. How you can get some and/or
3. Is there a perfect recipe for getting those flavors?

I can't promise you that you'll get the flavors I've described but I can hand you a recipe and kit where I found this particular bean sings.

In this case, the Ivory Coast really shows off its flavors at 68%. Everything is pre-roasted, winnowed, portioned, and measured. No weighing. No prep. Just pour it into your melanger and let the magic happen. By the next day, you'll have fresh craft chocolate.

All you have to do is toss the supplied ingredients in your Melanger and in the next day or so you will have chocolate ready to temper or store (or other uses as you see fit).

What's Required:

A Melanger is 100% required to refine the ingredients to smooth modern chocolate. This is not optional.

What's Recommended

• Basics: We assume you have basic cooking equipment and utensils and a basic home oven.
• For Tempering: We can't recommend using Silk enough. Makes it dead simple and reliable to get a modern shine and snap finish on your chocolate. Please know, we are only able to ship Silk in the cooler months.
• Molds: We suggest our chocolate molds for tempering to make sure you have enough. Many People enjoy our Professional Grade 2oz Bar Mold.

Care & Storage

To preserve its freshness and rich flavor, always store chocolate making ingredients in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. They benefit from stable, moderate conditions and should be kept sealed when not in use.
