Discover Chocolate and Live La Vida Cocoa!
temperture
Hi all i know that this seems very basic but i would like to know what peoples views are about temperature, i have read a lot and i keep getting different temps.
1 when first starting in the tempering cycle is it safe to go about 45oC ?
2 what is the best room temp for making chocolate in ?
3 what is the best storage temp for a finished solid chocolate or filled chocolate ?
look forward to hearing from you

Hi there,
i don't know if my way of work is 100% to the books, my working temperatures are more or less those:
-room temperature between 20/22C (constant), Humidity not superior of 60%.
-depending on the chocolate quality (dark) i bring the temperature between 45 and 48C (50C is already dangerous zone),
milk choc. or white choc should not go over 43/45C (burning of the milk solids)
-i store my chocolate in a room at about 16/18C and a air humidity of 55/60%
I hope is a little help.
