@frank L I’m confused how you believe you’ve ever tempered chocolate without bringing it past 104F/40C. It sounds like you’re using chocolate that’s already tempered, and only heating it up to working temperature, which is honestly the best way to do it. A third option is heating the bulk of the chocolate to 100F/39C and adding in ~10%+ of tempered chocolate to bring down the temperature and seed it with the proper crystals, which will cause the entire batch to auto-temper

They didn't. Some Native Americans in relative recent history figured out that you could extract a kind of ...watery chocolate drink by basically using cleaned chocolate pods as tea leaves; and that was only 4,000 years ago. Chocolate is one of the most recently domesticated crops in humans "arsenal"; the cultivars aren't as well established as say... wheat or certain kinds of fruit tree. Modern chocolate we know it is *exactly that*, having essentially only been first produced just a few hundred years ago; which means the domesticated cultivars that we use currently for chocolate production are about as old. Like, the history of chocolate's domestication and use is extremely modern history; with its primary use in the Americas to make a "chocolate drink" for special occasions from wild cacao trees being a few thousands years old, but refined chocolate being extremely new.

From what I know it took time for chocolate to be invented the drink before chocolate used by South American was more like a beer with spices in it and stuff,And was probably not enjoyed by the Europeans,because of its taste. The modern chocolate we know was a different recipe,it started with little squares and stuff and various chocolate makers introduced milk and sugar to make it taste better,and boy did its popularity explode.

I went to Hawaii and had a tour of a chocolate farm. Got to eat a cacao bean out of a pod right from the tree. It was mushy and sweet but didn’t taste like chocolate until you bit into the hard seed inside.

People fermented stuff all the time in old times, probably started as a preservation technique. Also keep in mind that the indigenous people who invented chocolate exclusively consumed it as a drink or as an ingredients in something else, solid bar chocolate was not invented until the industrial revolution.
Whenever I bake I find workarounds to not use the equipment they need, Nile finds workarounds to use equipment the recipe doesn’t ask for.

You can’t really do that for the chocolate. You’re basically processing a raw material into something refined.

Also, coming from a cocoa producing country, there’s not much research about making chocolate in general. There’s some guidelines for making a chocolate feel fancier but everyone’s really just winging it or doing what already works
I know I'm late to this video, but if you want a really good insight into making chocolate, there's a place in Hamburg Germany called Chocoversum, and their tour was great, honestly would give some good tips on producing chocolate from scratch.

The 1st time i did it too it came out just the same, and honestly it felt pretty bad. It's not a grainy type of "chew it and it will disolve" type of grainy texture, it's more of a full on beach sand with powdered coco taste, it obstructs the pure chocolate flavor. So eventually it is necessary to dissolve it better.

I work at a chocolate factory so this was quite fun to watch you make chocolate on this scale and seeing all the steps we take done like this!
I've been to Ilha do Combu, an amazonian island in Belém - Brasil, where the community hasvest the fruit and make their own 100% chocolate. As the climate is hot, the fermentation happens naturally, they just leave it covered on a tray, outside, for a few days. Before roasting in a regular kitchen oven, they remove the shells and the fruit, and just the seeds are roasted, that's probably why so much was lost in the process here. After roasting, they grind everything on a simple manual grinder, until it becames a paste. That's the traditional way of making 100% chocolate, with no added sugar or cocoa butter. They sell it to some fancy restaurants, and it can be used in savory foods as well. I bought some and had chocolate cook for a year, and has a super strong, bitter flavor. What we buy on the supermarket its pretty different, it's candy, they isolate the cocoa butter, and put it back together, in different amounts, adding more butter, sugar, milk, and chemicals, and every company has its own recipe. Pretty cool
When it's so horrifying you just cannot look away. That cacao was abused in ways unimaginable. It's poetic how the chocolate still came out from it, forged in ways unthinkable, yet still sweet to the world.
