Chocolate
50% coca solids
200g
800g
4floz
Melt 400g mixed with 2floz of oil for 1 minute.
After 1 minute stir thoroughly to combine the oil
and chocolate.
If needed place back in the microwave for 30
seconds and repeat until melted.
Repeat procedure with remaining 400g of
chocolate.
The above timings for melting the chocolate are based on an 800W microwave oven on high.
Please adjust the melting time according to the wattage of the microwave according to the
manufactures instructions.
Keep a close eye on the chocolate when melting in a microwave.
We do not recommend melting for any more than one minute at a time, as chocolate burns
very easy and will become unusable once burnt.
If you favour melting the chocolate on a hob instead of in a microwave carefully place a heat
resistant bowl over a pan of hot water (not boiling as this will burn the chocolate) and stir
continually until the chocolate has melted. Add the oil the same as you would as if melted in
the microwave.
We recommend for the best results and coverage using the, pre-formulated chocolate, which
can be purchase online at

This has been specially formulated to work with the Chocolate Fondue Fountain and using this
chocolate will display the best results. The pre-formulated chocolate is all ready to use and
already has oil added. Simply melt in the microwave and use!
If you feel that you need to add extra oil please add a small amount at a time.
The above are just guidelines, your own judgment will be needed when trying out chocolate
that is not listed on the table above.
Remember the lower the coca solids the more oil you need to use!
NOTE:
Every time you use the fondue fountain you will need to adjust the legs at the front of
the machine to ensure that it is level. You will also need to do this each time you use a
different type of chocolate due to the different consistency.
If you have followed the instructions above for melting the chocolate and it is still not covering
the tiers correctly, i.e. leaving gaps at the bottom tier, you will need to adjust the legs of the
fountain until all gaps are closed. Or try adding a small amount of extra vegetable oil to the
chocolate at the base as the chocolate maybe to thick.
