Description: Merch: bonfire.com/store/flavor-lab ** NEW REFERRAL LINK TO MIAMI FRUIT - the small independent business where I sourced my cacao pods: miamifruit.org?aff=63 ** Have you ever wondered how chocolate is made? Alright, let’s go from cacao pod to chocolate bar today on this super-intensive video. I am not going to lie, although this was a lot of fun, it was also a lot of hard work. In total, this process took me over 2 months, not because the process takes this long, but because I messed up a few times had to start over, as well as deal with some week-long camera issues that didn’t allow me to film. However in my folly, I learned a lot, and I hope to pass what I learned on so you don’t make the same pitfalls I did. Chocolate making is a very complicated and intricate process, but today, I am going to show you my simplistic attempt at making chocolate, however, even with my plebian attempt at chocolate, it still turned out really well.  Chocolate making has more or less 4 steps: 0:00 Intro 2:04 Fermentation 3:49 Drying and roasting 5:34 Grinding  7:59 Heating and forming ============= Full Recipe ================== flavorlab.xyz/recipes/chocolate ============= Links ================== Fermenting Jars: amzn.to/3kirYYE Chocolate Mold: amzn.to/3xH99SI Mixing Bowls: amzn.to/3yZbEjA Mortar and Pestle: amzn.to/3zfhyxl Oven/Dehydrator: amzn.to/3wEOMEp Thermometer Spatula: amzn.to/3idvPDB Vitamix Blender: amzn.to/3rc7SAy Cuisinart Burner: amzn.to/3xLyRFC ============= Video Equipment ================== Camera: amzn.to/3i72XNm Lens: amzn.to/3eiODjx Lens Adaptor: amzn.to/3rji9uX Light: amzn.to/2UMK7TQ ============= Ingredients ================== 3-4 cocao pods 10% of the collected mass in granulated sugar 15% of the collected mass in cocao butter Disclaimer: Some links are affiliate links
