Skip the timer and just let it melt overnight, it’s fine if it stays melted til you need it.
 

What is the max temp for the dehydrator?  

I was trying to be mindful of energy use and avoid extra heat production during summer. I would hope they are fairly efficient though. Max temp is 155.

Jim I am puzzled by your post. Do you mean to say that you wouldn’t use a melter to melt your chocolate overnight? I use my melters to melt my chocolate and then I use them to hold tempered chocolate for a day of bonbon making. 

Melters have more precise temperature control correct? 

I did find it almost redundant that then I had to use my tempering machine for temperature control after melting. 

 

I was just trying to experiment with my new eztemper silk. 

 

Love to hear your full process Jim.
