    Hello, I hope I do have a good question here. Let's day that I was using 1 Kg of Callebaut chocolate, and I added in 10 grams of Mycryo, and then used only 1/2 of the chocolate I prepared. I let the bowl of unused chocolate sit overnight, and now wish to get the chocolate tempered once again.... so I repeat the process and add a bit of Mycro to repeat the process ( get the chocolate tempered ) ..... in theory, if I did this a few times, the total mass of chocolate would now have elevated levels of cocoa butter ... so a higher cocoa butter content.... would this now cause me problems by making the chocolate too soft ? or does this pose a problem at all... perhaps I'm overthinking it. Hopefully a good question that somebody at Callebaut can answer for me.. thank you ! and I use your chocolate all the time ! love it ! :-)

      Hi @BakeLikeAPro! Very good question indeed.
      - First advise to give is to estimate well how much chocolate you would need for your application, and try to avoid having half of the volume left over at the end.
      - However, if you still have some leftovers and you want to re-use them, you best add again a part of chocolate first which you heath up together with the chocolate you had, and then repeat the Mycryo addition. This means you do not keep on only adding Mycryo/CocoaButter but also dose chocolate which will give you only a little impact from the added CocoaButtter. This is the best way to avoid fluctuations in product consistency (fluidity, shine&snap in the end results, etc...)
      Hope this helps!

      Hello, and thanks for the detailed reply. I appreciate it. For some reason RUclips is not giving me email alerts that you replied to my comment. I just happened to come back here to watch the video again and see your reply. Thank you - I get it now. :-) By the way - I just got my first order of Mycryo yesterday ( Friday ) and am very excited to work with it ! I will be doing a video in the near future on how to use the Callebaut product to temper some chocolate. Very exciting ! Thank you again for your reply.

      @@Callebautchocolate hello guys! I'm having troubles with this method right now. I melt the chocolate in Bain Marie first until it reaches 35/36°C then bring it down to 34°C to add the Mycryo powder, always constantly moving until the cocoa powder dissolve, then i place it to the Chocolate melting pot as the one you have ( graduate at 33°C) still not getting my tempering right..... Question: Do i need to bring the Chocolate to bring the Chocolate to a higher °C first and then cool it down to 34°C to be able to add the Mycryo or it is just right to melt the chocolate like I'm doing now?

I just watched a video from an other dude and he says after you put the mycryo butter at 34, for dark chocolate, to wait the temperature lows down to 31 C, and for milk and white to 28 C. He also mentions to mix barely to incorporate the cocoa butter to the chocolate and let it sit for 1-2 minutes then mix again and when you reach the temperature I mentioned, it’s ready to use.

    I'm sorry to be so dense, but is 34 degrees Celsius as high as I need to heat the chocolate in the first place? I've seen where many people seeding chocolate to temper bring it to 50 degrees Celsius first, then bring it down to 34 degrees to add seed crystals. I ask because I finally invested in Mycryo and I don't want to waste any! Thanking you in advance for your reply!

  • @cvbuy108
    @cvbuy108 3 года назад +1

    If Mycryo is placed in a ziploc and was exposed to high heat, will it melt? It's pretty hard to find Mycryo where I'm in at the moment so I bought a pack from somewhere. When it arrived, it looked like spreadable butter and lost its powdered form but I'm not sure if it's possible or if I was ripped off.

  • @GarfThings
    @GarfThings 7 лет назад +3

    Add the crystals at 34c then straight to working temp? So this removes the need to cool rapidly and reheat the chocolate since you don't ever get low enough to allow the type 4 crystals to form?

    • @Callebautchocolate
      @Callebautchocolate  7 лет назад +5

      Yes.
      To go over the method: We need to add the mycryo at 34°C for the crystals to melt fully (since the melting point of cocoa butter is 33°C). Then we mix it in to the chocolate and stir / wait for the temperature to drop to its right working temp, which is 31- 32°C for dark chocolate, 30°C for milk chocolate and 28°C for white chocolate.
      Since Mycryo has all the necessary crystals and the temp isn't high enough (34°C ) to melt these down, we're basically adding stable crystals to our chocolate resulting in tempered or "pre-crystallized" chocolate.

    Would this product be suitable or appropriate for ensuring coloured cocoa butter is tempered, so that you can use it in extremely small quantities by just melting that small quantity? So if I wanted say just 20g of coloured cocoa butter for decorating, heat it to and keep it at ~34C I could add just 200mg of mycryo - and in theory it should work in those kinds of small quantities?

    • @Callebautchocolate

      Hi Mithila! Great that you reached out to us, happy to hear from you. Yes indeed you will need a climatised working area to prepare your chocolates - chocolates start melting a temperature +30°C meaning you will never reach any hardening of your tablets, bonbons, at India summer temperatures without aircondittioning.

    When I put Mycryo in dark chocolate (the temperature of chocolate is 34 C) and stir it, the Mycryo grains do not dissolve in chocolate. The result is grainy texture of tempered chocolate. Is there any advice on how to avoid this grainy texture?

    • @Callebautchocolate
      @Callebautchocolate  5 лет назад +1

      Hello there! Good question. The simple answer would be to stir just a bit longer. If the chocolat was really 34°C then the mycryo would melt after a few mintues. There needs to be time and friction for the cocoa butter to melt and homogenise. Hope that works! More on tempering? Go visit: www.callebaut.com and check out all tutorial movies! Best regards!
