In this episode we learn how to make a chocolate recipe. In particular we cover a 1 kilo 70% dark chocolate test-batch, but this method can be applied to a recipe of any quantity with any ingredients. After 10 years of making and logging recipes, it has become second nature, but in the beginning it wasn’t so intuitive. Dylan discusses the best way Manoa Chocolate has found to create test-batches and recipes.
