After receiving an Up2 Plus 3D printer, this printer isn’t used much lately. I decided to remove the extruder and replace it with a chocolate extruder. The first prints look promising.

Hi, everyone!

I am trying to print chocolate with Zmorph but it is really hard to adjust proper temperature and texture for chocolate. I have been trying with couverture type. How could you catch the right texture? Which temperature and viscosity is the right one to print an excellent 3D chocolate pieces without spreading? Did you measure the other parameters?

Please share any tips you know!
