Coffee Infusion
Ingredients: Coffee Infusion
-
197 gCoffee infusion
-
47 gglucose syrup DE 38
-
47 ginverted sugar
-
8 gbutter
-
142 g
Preparation: Coffee Infusion
- Add the glucose syrup, the inverted sugar and the butter to the infusion.
- In a tall recipient, add the chocolate.
- Heat the infusion mixture to 50-55°C (122-131°F).
- Pour the heated mixture over the chocolate and allow a few moments for heat transfer.
- Blend well and ensure a proper emulsion.
- Scrape to ensure that all the chocolate has been incorporated into the ganache and blend again to remove any remaining lumps.
- The temperature of the ganache should be 28-29°C (82-84°F).
- Pour the ganache into a piping bag, cut a small tip to control the flow and immediately pipe into the prepared molds.
- Place the filled molds in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to promote the crystallization of the ganache.
- Remove the molds from the refrigerator and allow the ganache to crystallize at 18-20°C (64-68°F) for at least 12 hours before closing the molds.
- Using a heat gun, slightly warm the top of the mold to barely melt the chocolate shells so that when closing the mold with pre-crystallized chocolate, the two will join together perfectly.
- Pour pre-crystallized chocolate into the mold and remove the excess with a palette knife.
- Make sure that the mold is completely sealed and place it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from the fridge and slightly flex the mold to start unmolding.
- Cover with parchment paper and a metal tray, then flip it over and tap the mold with a spatula.
- Carefully lift the mold and carefully transfer the unmolded bonbons to a clean tray. If some bonbons remain in the mold, repeat the same process.
- After unmolding, handle the bonbons with soft cotton gloves to prevent fingerprints.
