5.4 Operation

Suitable chocolate
•
The chocolate fountain is designed for all types of commercially available
chocolate, free from any solid components, such as nuts, almonds or brittles
which could block the conveyor screw during ist operation.
•
Couverture chocolate is particularly suitable because it contains more cocoa butter.
The higher content of cocoa butter, the better the flow properties of chocolate.
The cocoa content should not be too high (max. 60%), as the higher it is, the worse
are the flow properties of chocolate.
The chocolate must be chopped before melting. The smaller the pieces of
chocolate, the faster the melting process.
•
The most suitable is special chocolate for fondue and chocolate fountain.
It contains the ideal proportions of cocoa butter and cocoa.
•
You need at least 2.5 kg of chocolate to fill the device.
Melting of chocolate in the device
•
Prepare the chocolate and fill up the bowl with it.
•
Connect the device to a single grounded outlet with earthing contact. The red
control lamp will light up.
•
Rotate the temperature knob clockwise until it stops in order to set the highest
temperature and melt the chocolate in the bowl.
The melting time is approximately 60 minutes. If chocolate is not thin enough, pour
some cooking oil (such as canola oil or vegetable oil) and stir it with a spoon to mix
with the chocolate mass.
