Professional temperature control unit Digital 3.6 liters

This tempering unit facilitates the tempering process of couverture immensely. This is melted particularly gently and a constant temperature is always maintained. Due to the large surface area, this device is also optimally suited for the production of hollow praline molds. You can turn the polycarbonate mold directly over the tempering unit and do not have to pour back the couverture with the help of a baking paper. In addition, up to 3.6 L of chocolate can be tempered here, making the unit suitable for larger productions. After pouring crisp chocolate bars, fine pralines and sweet chocolate figures, you can simply put the stainless steel container in the dishwasher.

The digital display allows you to control the temperature ideally and the temperature control result will be perfect. A massive improvement over conventional devices.

Commissioning and cleaning

The plugged-in device can be switched on at the back. Then you can set the desired temperature continuously. The temperature scale goes up to 60° C. You should only use such high temperatures for heating or keeping other foods warm. Chocolate should not be heated above 45° C. If you no longer need the device, the container and the lid can be easily put in the dishwasher. The device itself can be cleaned with a soft cloth and a little gentle detergent.

Temper

In order to produce perfectly shiny hollow chocolate figures, pralines like from the confectioner and chocolate bars with a beautiful break, the couverture must be tempered correctly. To do this, set the temperature to 45 degrees and pour 2/3 of the desired amount of couverture into the stainless steel container. Cover and let the couverture stand for 2-4 hours, depending on the amount. Stir a little bit every now and then. You can of course melt a whole block of couverture, but this will take much longer than if you use couverture drops.

Once all the couverture is melted, set the machine back to 26-29 degrees, depending on the cocoa content of the couverture used, and add the remaining couverture drops. Stirring occasionally, this melts and cools the remaining couverture. Any remaining pieces can be reheated with a hot air dryer. Finally, heat the entire mass to 29-33 degrees. Before you continue to use the couverture, you should make a sample. Hold a spatula in the couverture and let it set for 5-10 minutes. If the room temperature is high, this can also be done in the refrigerator. The sample should solidify on the surface and underneath, get a nice shine and after touching it with your finger, the fingerprint should be clearly visible.

If this should not be the case, you can register on our Blog about the most common mistakes when working with couverture inform. If the sample worked, you can now create chocolate products as you please. Pour great chocolates, make delicious chocolate bars and figures, decorate your pastries or stamp noble truffles and cut chocolates!
