Hi Humboldt-chocolate,
No we haven't tried flooding and scraping because we purchased the moulding line that works with the dosing head, not with a scraper, I suppose we could hand scrape them, but it adds another person that we would need to mould them. At the moment we are sprinkling the inclusions, which also means we need an extra person. We are trying to work it out 
Hi Clay,
I hope all good with you. We are having a major issue at our chocolate factory at the moment and am feeling a bit desperate. It is a small factory, and we just upgraded from a Selmi One to an FBM Unica with dosing head and line, which I heard about from The Chocolate Life.
The problem is that we were told that it would dose with inclusions up to 7mm and 10% inclusions in the chocolate. Our inclusions are under 5mm (we use a colander to make sure) and 5% inclusions in the chocolate and the dosing head works for less than 30 seconds before it gets blocked. We spent $30,000UAUD on this machine because we thought it would make us more efficient, yet two thirds of our bars have inclusions, and we are finding that it is faster to hand mould the ones with inclusions (we have tried sprinkling them in by hand as we go with the moulding line and it is taking ages). Sorry to rant, but I know you really believe in FBM and have a lot of experience with their machines, so I thought maybe you could help us in some way? It is really damaging our business, we are weeks behind on orders because of these issues. We are in contact with FBM, but we have tried everything they suggested and it doesn't work, so are feeling at a loss. Any ideas welcome. Thanks for your time.
Selma One 12KG Continuous Tempering Machine in Excellent Condition - Only 2 Year Old - Sydney, Australia
We are selling our first much loved Selmi One automatic tempering machine. We have just upgraded to a larger temperer in our Sydney based chocolate factory and have no need for this one anymore. It will make a fine addition to a small chocolate factory or patisserie. When we first got it, it changed our lives! It has been taken very well care of and is in excellent condition.
