For myself, and probably for others too who are starting off in this industry, this is absolute gold, Dylan. Thanks so very much!

You provide great information that I dont find anywhere else many thanks

Really good information. Dylan, you made a good point about machines and being careful with sending money. I’d love to see a video of companies you recommend that are trust worthy!

thank you Dylan! I’m starting my own small cacao farm and your videos are very helpful to me esp that I’m trying to add value to my end products by not just selling beans. 😂

I just found this channel and it’s gold! I’m in the process of starting my chocolate factory and I couldn’t be happier that I found you! Thank you

Woow! I didn't even open my business yet and you teaching me so much. God bless you and your company for sharing all those valuable info.

Thank you Dylan for this video. I´m a standalone bonbon and chocolate maker and I struggle with everything appart from making chocolate. This is very helpful. Cheers from Buenos Aires

THANK YOU!!! This was awesome! It's so hard to find business info that is specific to the chocolate industry. I run a tiny, one person bonbon company and I am ravenous for ALL the business tips. I am also getting ready to buy a building and build out a commercial kitchen from scratch so would love any tips and content about that.

Dylan you'r the best

Perfect timing for me to find your video as I'm working on my cash flows statements for our chocolate factory.

Thanks so much Dylan, awesome you feel inclined to share your journey like this. Thanks so much.

Just watched. Thanks Dylan. This is the most beneficial video so far.

Hello Dylan, I would like to thank you for the very informative videos on chocolate making. We are planning to start a small chocolate factory in Lebanon with a capacity of about 150 kg/day, thus it will not be feasible to buy beans and go through the initial processes of roasting to winnowing. Instead we intend to start by purchasing the ingredients such Cacao powder, butter, sugar etc... Would like to check in such case if the Conching process is still required.

Found one of your videos at random and was stocked the factory is where I live how random!! I will definitely stop by and get some chocolate keep posting!!

you are my inspiration!!

Thanks Dylan for the honest and detailed information,it's really gona be helpful to me when I start in the near future

I have planted 900 cocoa trees soa far this year, can help me get a good market, when my cocoa starts to mature

How to avoid maggots in Chocolate. I got maggots in my Chocolate which is packed in glass jar and plastic packing too.

Is it better to start with bulk cocoa powder rather than from the bean so u can skip the bean processing?

Thanks you! Really great lecturer! And why no names if they are bad guys? It' a great add for such unreliable company.

You should really be splitting your streams at distribution e.g. $2.50 - $3.50 if they are wholesaling and $7.50 if they are going to be retailing and looking to do events based experience packages to your largest retailers regions (or in conjunction with them depending on what is most lucrative) both domestically and non-domestically. After which looking to expand out and take over the retailing / wholesaling sector centrally.

Hello Dylan! Thank you for you very instructive videos. I've got a question, if I may. How many kilos of white chocolate bar could you make when you were by yourself at your parents' place? I'd like to go into some cottage industry business with craft chocolate bars, mainly with cocoa butter, no roasting of beans at this stage. I am trying to see my breakeven point. Thank you.

Wine and alcohol good for morale ❤

Hi Our creative friend, can we know how many bars of chocolate produced by 1000 kg of cocoa beans????? With all due respect to you.

hi..i have a small question ? can we make chocolate with normal butter ? what are the pros and cons .. thanks

I've been a little lost with the cost of the machines. Are you assuming that in that three-year projection there aren't any big investments in that area?

quick question - How did you live on 36k ....IN HAWAII?!

Hola tu puedes colocar los subtítulos en español por favor Gracias

Please do you offer training to outsiders?

Sir please tell how to calculate 65%chocolate 75%0......

so I have a question am looking to start out making chocolate from my house and can't afford all the machines would it be ok to just start with cacao powder instead of beans? I would later on use beans just starting out real small

NO! Cacao powder is already processed and has most of the cocoa butter extracted from it. It's not the same as using beans. Even if you are super small, you still need a melanger to get a fine enough particle size. They start at around $250 (really affordable as chocolate equipment goes).

No, any powder is still not fine enough, you still need a refiner/melanger. And remember, you still have add sugar, and you need to refine that down in the refiner/melanger as well. Can't remember the exact particle size, but it needs to be around 10 microns. Watch this, it will probably answer your questions kzread.info/dash/bejne/qGqbz6WCkabRftI.html

Man im disappointed. I agree with most of your advices specially with urban location and retails rather than whole sales but the my budget isnt that big . So what do u think about startups with low budget?

first :P

Drinking Philippines??,😂😂😂
