I dont have the space for it. I'm in a unit so I can't do it outside.\r\n\r\nI presume the nibs have already been winnowed?\r\n\r\nThanks for your help!","subreddit_name":"chocolate","author":"tamltiger"},{"body":"Thank you for your help. I was thinking of getting this melanger Premier Wonder Table Top Wet Grinder (1.5 L) - 230 Volts https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B004OPIBV2/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_GH7TKXQWD063WR3KYPEJ would it be suitable? How long would it need to run, is 12 hours long enough?\r\n\r\nWould cacao nibs be ok to use instead of beans or cacao powder? I'm trying to work out a way to avoid the winnowing process. Would I need to grind the nibs into liquor in a juicer or could they go straight in the melanger? If I need a juicer would the omega 8006 be ok? I already have that.\r\n\r\nWould the same method you outlined for the melanger hold true for adding nibs? I was also thinking of adding milk powder.\r\n\r\nApologies if it's too many questions but I want to work out if it's possible to make without the winnowing before I buy the melanger. I dont have the space to winnow with a hairdryer and have husks go everywhere so I'm trying to avoid that step. Your help is much appreciated!","subreddit_name":"chocolate","author":"tamltiger"},{"body":"[I use this bad boy.](Premier Small Wonder Table Top Wet Grinder 1.5 Liter ,110 volts by SS Premier https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004OPIBV2/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_ZDH2SDAZ98JTEME4VTV2)\r\n\r\nThere aren't a ton of applications for it outside of making nut butter, dosa batter, praliné, or chocolate. But the nice thing about the last bit is you can make really interesting \"chocolate\" couvertures. I've made coffee \"chocolate\", mango, and even toasted sourdough bread \"chocolate\".","subreddit_name":"AskBaking","author":"Fluffy_Munchkin"},{"body":"A great alternative to get the best of both worlds is a wet grinder. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004OPIBV2/\r\n\r\nIt basically mimics the action of a mortar and pestle with a motorized set of stone wheels that grind against a stone base","subreddit_name":"Cooking","author":"Yea_Nah_Ok"},{"body":"Oh yes, the cocoa powder should always be 100% cocoa, except when you turn it into hot cocoa mix. I meant that mass manufacturers have to add lots of sugar and milk powder in the process of making chocolate to cover up the crappy flavor. \r\n\r\nOne of the many chocolate jobs I've had over the last 12 years used Terrasoul cocoa powder for a while. They're pretty good, as is Navitas Organics. Both are readily available on Amazon and at Whole Foods and most other natural grocers (Sprouts, etc.)\r\n\r\nRaw/unrefined or cold pressed cocoa butter is the way to go. It will retain a decent amount of flavor, and a good one should definitely smell like really light chocolate, and should almost smell sweet. It has a SLIGHT waxy smell, but if it starts to smell rancid or like paraffin wax (no chocolate smell) that's not the one to use. Terrasoul's cocoa butter has always been pretty decent.\r\n\r\nSo, a concher refiner is SORT of a mixer, but it's more of a grinder. They're usually a huge drum with weird arms inside that grind the chocolate against the walls of the machine. There are smaller versions that will do the job if you're deciding to become a more serious hobbyist, like this tabletop refiner (Premier Small Wonder Table Top Wet Grinder 1.5 Liter by SS Premier https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004OPIBV2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_KEptDbNKH13MX) but I definitely don't recommend trying to make any money off this kind of venture. \r\n\r\nLastly, Hershey's uses sour milk powder in their chocolate to give it a different taste. Milton Hershey basically had a bad batch of milk and just rolled with it instead of getting new milk and ended up liking the flavor more. Apparently, the company has moved over to using butyric acid instead of the rarer-to-find sour milk powder, but this is even grosser to think about - butyric acid is the same chemical compound that makes milk smell sour, cheese smell like a foot, and vomit taste... Well, like vomit.
