    Thank you for your wonderfully constructed vlog. I consider it as a truly valuable info and knowledge resource for people like us who merely enjoy munching chocolates without even wondering how much effort has been put into producing it, or how sophisticated its manufacturing process could be. Your lines regarding social responsibility is especially laudable and appreciated; social responsibility ought to be a global concern. Congratulations!

You have taken to time to give a lot of detail and insight into making craft chocolate. This certainly educates customers about the effort, care and details involved in the amazing craft. Kudos to you! Thanks for all of the amazing content that you share. My daughter Anna, Terrance - our Belmont Estate Chocolate maker and I met you and the FFS in San Fran 2020, and enjoyed your chocolates very much. Keep on inspiring and innovating! Wishing you much success!

    Thanks for a great overall presentation! I just bought a 2-hectare farm with around 200 abandoned forestero and trinitario trees in SW Colombia (not too far from Ecuador). I'm skipping the $$$ tempering machines and instead tempering with DIY 1% cocoa silk right out of the melanger. The ball mill refining is interesting as opposed to wet stone melangers and roller grinding.

Did you do the Cd and Pb tests? The heavy metal contents might vary depending on the origin.
