Chocolate has gone very
hard during melting Chocolate has
burnt/seized. If chocolate has seized during the
melting, it has become too hot. The
chocolate will become grainy and firm
up. It will look like a dull, thick paste.
Chocolate must be thrown away and
start again.
There is a white film
around the base of the
chocolate There is nothing wrong with the
chocolate, it is just from the churning
process that happens when the
chocolate is cycled through the unit.
