I recently purchased the FBM Prima, a small 7kg unit with enrober and have some questions for those that may have some knowledge about it. Does the chocolate need to be melted before I put it in the machine or does it do the melting? Does anyone have any good manual for setup for this machine as the documentation provided by FBM is not very good at all and I'm not comfortable guessing. I'm sure to have more questions as I start using the machine in the upcoming weeks.

Thanks!

  • I have a Unica, but it's basically the same process. Put chunks of chocolate in the working bowl set your temperature to 49 or 50C turn on the stirrer. When there is about 2 inches of melted chocolate turn on auger. If chocolate dose not come out of spout in 15 secs turn off the auger and turn auger back on after a few minutes. Robert
