How do making cocomas
@CraftChocolateTV3 күн бұрын
The simplest way is to roast, winnow, and then grind. That gives you cocoa mass / cocoa paste. We use a roaster, winnower, roll mill, and then ball mill to create our cocoa mass, but the process can be simpler than that - once the beans are ground, you have cocoa mass.

Just about to harvest my first quantity of beans, still small as I only have 120 trees, but should be enough to make chocolate bars. What quantity of beans does this box hold and what do you do on the bottom with the juices that drain out (meaning is it up on bricks with something underneath to catch liquid or ??). Here in Thailand they use untreated hard wood, sometimes old reclaimed wood, so I'll likely go this route. Watched all your vids, great stuff!!

That's why we make these! To help folks like you learn either as a passion or career. Our videos can definitely help you understand cacao, chocolate, and the business better. We're also developing a course that we'll be launching early next year that goes into far more depth on the entire process. But our existing library on KZbin is extensive and full of helpful information to get you started on your journey! Our advice, dabble with making chocolate at home and see if it hooks you like it has so many of us.

@CraftChocolateTV12 күн бұрын
Aloha! We use cacao nibs, cacao butter, and sugar for our dark chocolate bars. In our case, we use 10% cacao butter for our 70% single origin dark chocolates. That means 60% of the bar is nibs, 10% is cacao butter, and the remaining 30% is sugar. The choice you'll need to make is how much of the 55% you'll want to be cacao butter. If it's 10%, then you'll use 45% nibs, 10% cacao butter, and 45% sugar. Hope that helps!

Wow, it's really too bad you had to deal with getting sued over something so simple. I see this as an example of government predatory regulation that is designed to allow predatory lawyers to take advantage of people. Why in the world would a business owner who sells chocolate know about the ADA's requirements, much less that you can be sued over this? I hope we can go back to having a free market without so much regulation. That way, companies can choose whether they would like to design an accessible website, or not.

We are mainly selling bars, but also have baked goods and sweets and drinks and in summer ice cream( all chocolate based and themed). and we started to do wholesale of our sweets to a big company in japan. we see a constant growth , we have a problem with space ( in japan space is like gold 😁) . thinking of opening a new bigger spaced shop. i hope business will keep on growing and that economy will be ok. we don't have anywhere near the numbers that you have mentioned at the beginning, but in 5 years we can reach them i hope 😁 i wish luck to your company have been following you for years, i hope that i can come one day to Hawaii and visit your factory.
