Tips
Keep a heat gun or hairdryer near by if your space is a little cold. You may need to apply heat at the begging until the mixture becomes fully fluid.
Straining the chocolate is very important if you want super smooth chocolate, especially with oats. There can be some bits of oats that don’t get ground down fully in the machine.
Cane or beet sugar, aka regular granulated sugar, is best for making chocolate. Brown sugar has a moisture in it and will cause the chocolate to become lumpy and possibly damage the chocolate grinder.
