Despite the cold weather hit Italy and Europe at this time we are particularly committed to producing even our Climatico, the tunnels with various measures of length and width, provide the perfect crystallization of the chocolate.
Climatico allows to speed up production and make the product immediately available for packaging.
From 20 centimeters to 1, 6 feet wide and 3 meters to 24 meters in length: this is our current experience.
Who wants to take control ofhumidity, who wants to speed in a very important way , but everyone should have the right coil in the air that should not be directed on the product to not create unsightly shadows on the finished product.
Well! What about ... despite all the cold is nice.

If, after Sigep and after the first month of Chocolab, pastries and chocolatiers have realized how is revolutionary this new way to have a machine capable of diferent productions of chocolate without engaging with "extra" for electricpower, raw material and, first of all, money, we must also remember to thank realities as pubs, hotels, bakeries that since September, when we presented give us satisfaction with Aura our table tempering machine.
