[@thezengirl3685]

I love these little tips! You are so kind to make these, so we know what we are putting in our mouths ALL THESE YEARS!

[@georgecolquhoun4357]

Finally, I get someone to differentiate cacao vs cocoa. I was confused because I am from the island and we call the beans cocoa. We grow up parching the beans and use a mortar and pestle to grind the been until it becomes pliable. We then make it into a ball; let it rest then grate it and boil it with cinnamon leaf; sweeten it with milk and consume it as tea. When the tea is made there is a lot of oil on the top. Thank you very much for this clarification.

[@Hayleyoocrazy]

yes! yours is the exact comment i was looking for!

[@arunimasarkar814]

I am a small Chocolatier residing at Kolkata, India. You inspire me a lot❤️

[@daniulchowdhury7110]

Man I really needed this guys explanation! Bought my first bag of beans and literally have no idea what Im doing. Thanks!

[@Aris-Darling]

I stumbled upon the Manoa Chocolate Factory while hanging out in Kailua (I live in Honolulu) and decided to go in. The staff were so nice and I did a little tasting, bought some chocolate and Cacao seeds and tea and plan to go back for the rum. You run a nice business and I hope to continue to visit and procure my chocolate needs 😊

[@BoyTsamba]

very well explained. very informative. excellent video. i can sense you really know what you're talking about.

[@Serious9185]

Thank you very much. This was exactly what I wanted to understand

[@BLewis-ks8zu]

I found my first cacao fruit at the farmers market here in Miami. I'm excited to try the fruit which I've never had before. I googled how to roast the beans and found these very informative videos. Needless to say as a chocolate lover, (the darker the better!) I went on your site and ordered some things! I can't wait to try!! Thank you.

[@amandamonica6135]

the fruit taste good too 😆🤤

[@bernadetterocha3693]

I bought cacao nibs a couple of years ago and made hot chocolate with it after grinding them in a coffee grinder. I never thought to continue until it became chocolate-y. I'll pick some up and grind them in my molcajete to try it out. Thanks!

[@nitro200flyer3]

I love cocoa nibs. my understanding of raw nibs means dried out in the sun on a table not roasted by any means of heating with temperatures of over 140 Fahrenheit

[@Reason4Termination]

I love nibs! Very addicting. I eat them as it is, straight to the mouth :D

[@BigYosko]

Does the roasting process not kill the nutritional values of the cacao ?

[@BACON2369]

Took a while to find this break down. Awesome job.

[@thenary4342]

Very informative and great presentation! Thank you!! 😊

[@dsulvadarius]

Thanks for sharing.

[@anmolagrawal5358]

Very informative content, thanks for this!

[@thatoneguy454c]

It is a super food, but it is also an intoxicant. It's important to understand that as it can cause serious mood swings.

[@schaumaul]

why

[@thatoneguy454c]

@@schaumaul chocolate contains multiple addictive substances and stimulants. Theobromine is a very powerful stimulant and also converts to serotonin when ingested.

[@feliciascott83]

I think I'll keep my chocolates sweet. More fun for me. Great info.

[@danesaremperas7958]

I would really recommend you to all my friends whos engaged in cacao farming..

[@AsmaAsma-mg3ky]

I just wanna visit this place

[@willxuhanxiu]

I love your channel. I learn a lot here. If you write a book in the future, I will definitely buy it.

[@TheCalaminator]

After roasting - Do you “off gas” the beans for a day before grinding - like coffee? I throughly enjoy your channel and your chocolate.

[@gerardking2807]

Very good info Dylan.....

[@loulylouly8631]

Very good explanation 👌👌👌

[@johnconner9400]

[@michaelafangideh1856]

Thanks a lot.

[@edwardjones2202]

Good video mate

[@chefmanish9238]

Can you please explain how does manoa produce coco powder from nibs

[@delphiniapickett2934]

Taste good. Like coco tea. You can boil cinnamon in it

[@maureendera6440]

Did you sun dry yours for a certain number of days or you just roasted them straight up

[@arunimasarkar814]

I really really love your content

[@mariaquezadabandini6592]

Dear fellow cacao enthusiasts, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request some guidance and advice regarding cacao processing. I have recently ventured into the exciting world of growing, fermenting, drying, roasting, and winnowing my own cacao beans with the ultimate goal of creating delicious cacao nibs. While the process has been a rewarding and educational experience, I have encountered a slight issue that I am hoping you can help me with. It appears that my cacao nibs have been turning out slightly more acidic than I would prefer. I am uncertain whether this is a result of a misstep in my processing techniques or if there's something else I should be considering. Given the wealth of knowledge and experience within this community, I thought it would be the perfect place to seek guidance. I would greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions you may have to help me improve the flavor profile of my cacao nibs. Perhaps there are specific fermentation or drying techniques I should be mindful of, or maybe I need to adjust my roasting parameters. Any insights or personal experiences you can share would be immensely valuable to me. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and for any guidance you can provide. I am eager to learn from your expertise and enhance my cacao processing skills. Together, we can create truly exceptional cacao nibs!

[@mruncletheredge]

I'm not exactly sure how to do it, but the process is called Alkalisation.... It's purpose here is to reduce some of the acidity in the cacao bean....

[@mubaraksulaiman912]

thank you sir for sharing godbless

[@donlorenzo8587]

i roasted my first harvest cacao seeds pure natural no additives, does it has expiration ,if it does, how to know or compute the expiration date? thanks in advance

[@mariaguadalupehuamanrupa7379]

It´s interested and thank for you for the explication

[@skincraftorganicsllc8537]

Thank you for this great video! I thought the difference between cacao & cocoa was the roasting - so if the beans are roasted to make nibs, then aren't they not raw, and considered COCOA NIBS, rather than CACAO NIBS?

[@joesena9658]

So a Ñib is just a bean crushed? But not powder form

[@shoplifeafrica]

Thank you. Lovely

[@janelinaenlinea7743]

Gracias por los subtítulos...me encantó el contenido

[@cubesofspace]

Thanks a lot for the video. How to make chocolate compound. Please explain.

[@danielodev3385]

Terry love agricultural practice

[@tessp.l1284]

You can’t get a nib from cold pressing?

[@rahoofree]

Thanks🌹

[@delphiniapickett2934]

I can not find the bean of roasted coca

[@maamktan9375]

Are nibs used to make tablea?

[@arunimasarkar814]

I wish I could get your products in India❤️

[@88tongued]

How are cacao beans more expensive than cocoa powder?

[@lavvy2585]

I purchased some whole beans and wish I hadn't what a pain it's going to be to deshell them.

[@Mickeycuatropatas]

In small quantities, it is therapeutic and you can control the quality 100%. Some cocoa beans have been visited by larvae which turn into grey colored moths. These beans look ok, but when you manually deshell/dehusk/winnow them, they are lighter by feel and the inside is like dust. I toss these out, but many winnowers would have missed them and they would be made into chocolate.

[@rachelphilips6379]

🥰

[@Poetry4Peace]

Cooollp

[@cocoamachinery8782]

I can do it,haha

[@MiamiCoffee2023]

Have you tried to infrared cook these cacao beans? The Coffee I buy and drink is, check out this video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5aoYZ6En5iXbLc

[@plopperator]

healthy git

[@crystal6737]

Klaus?

[@jbalish102]

Mike Adam's brought me here

[@smartties3199]

Everything else is just sugar not much cacao

[@Hexsyn]

Ah yes, things that are bitter are good for you, including all the poisons.

[@8draupadi]

Once you roast it, you also lost a lot of value. I always buy raw, and its very delicious, not needed to roast it.

[@mr.zardoz3344]

Wfong. Chocolate is NOT a superfood. It just isn't.

[@allan640]

The trash from making Chocolate, lets make tea! lol good idea to make money, way over priced trash.
