 Set
the chocolate fountain base on a sturdy, level surface to begin.
Starting off with a sturdy level surface will ensure proper
operation of the chocolate
fondue fountain. Uneven sheeting
of chocolate over the fountain tiers is usually the result
of the chocolate fountain not standing level or that the chocolate
fondue is too thick. |
 Pick
up the main column and tier assembly and line up the 4 receiving
tubes at the bottom of the column with the 4 pegs in the bowl
portion of the fountain base. (You can assemble the main column with the tiers in place, or wait until the column is on the fountain to add the tiers.)
The
fit is snug when seating the pegs into the receiving tubes
at the bottom of the tier column. Once you have lined them
up, slowly work the column down until it is securely attached
to the base.
|
Once column is in place, roll the first o-ring to the bottom tier position. Place the tier on top of the o-ring and repeat process from the bottom up until all tiers are in place.
With our NEW adjustable tier system, any number of tiers can be placed in various positions along the column. Check out our Chocolate Fountain Shapes.
|
 After the base and tiers are attached, insert the stainless steel auger. Be sure the auger is inserted into the main column with the slot in the center of the auger bar pointed down. After inserting the auger into the column, give a slight turn to the auger until you feel the slot at the auger bottom lock into the auger drive key in the center of the bowl base. Finish the fountain assembly by placing the crown on the top of the main column. |
 With
the fountain fully assembled and level, it's time to get
warmed up. Set the temperature control for 250 degrees while
you prepare to melt your chocolate.
For
a quick and easy setup, we suggest melting our chocolate fountain chocolate in the microwave according to the directions on the package. Our Chocolate Fountain Chocolate does not require the addition of oil.
Chocolate chips or callets can be added directly to the pan in the fountain base and heated until melted. After your chocolate is melted, reduce heat to 175-180°.
If you are using a chocolate that does requires the addition of oil, please see "preparing
chocolate fondue with microwave". |
