I agree with what Kerry wrote. I can't imagine a situation where you would need enough colored cocoa butter (of a single color) to use a Chocovision machine (recall that the machine needs extra to make sure the thermometer is covered at all times). You can just follow one of the usual methods of tempering chocolate: (1) raise the temp, then cool the c.b. down, then up again or (2) raise the temp, cool the c.b. down to around 93F/34C, then add seed (you could use fresh cocoa butter for that), then lower temp to 86F/30C, then test the c.b., you will have tempered c.b. Just don't let the temp go down too low or up too high while using it or it will go out of temper.
Thanks. I will try that method if I get any grave foreboding responses from anyone who's tried it with the machine. 😁
