Chocolate Seizing: Moisture Fix for Smooth Melt
Chocolate seizing usually comes from water, steam, or heat that is too direct, which turns smooth melted chocolate grainy and dull. With dry tools, gentle heat, and careful re-emulsification using small amounts of warm liquid, you can prevent most failures and often salvage seized chocolate.
Essential Concepts
Moisture causes seizing. Keep tools dry. Melt gently. Use small amounts of warm liquid to fix it.
