How can you use cocoa nibs to make chocolate?
To make chocolate from cocoa nibs you need to grind the nibs up then add them to cocoa butter, sugar and nonfat milk powder. The next step is to put all the ingredients in a powerful wet grinder after melting it. When left to cool you have homemade chocolate.
Does chocolate liquor contain caffeine?
Yes. During chocolate making, the fibrous husk that surrounds each bean is removed through a process of breaking the bean into pieces, separating the husk from the bean, and then winnowing away the lighter husk from the heavier nibs by use of vacuums or high-pressure fans. The pieces of bean created during winnowing are called cocoa nibs. (The nibs are often ground up before being used to make chocolate, the result being called cocoa mass or cocoa liquor.) It is the nibs that contain the caffeine found in chocolate. The more nibs (or cocoa mass/cocoa liquor) used to make a piece of chocolate, the more caffeine it will contain.

What happens to chocolate nibs during the milling process?
they are hulled to expose the nibs, the shells are sold as garden fodder, like pine bark, they grind it into a mass and the using a machine known as a Conching machine work it with rollers to expose the cocoa butter and make what is known as "Chocolate Liquor", it is then sweetened, or has milk and sugar added for either dark chocolate or milk, now for cocoa an alkaline is added and it is dried a lot like sugar is processed into a powder, white chocolate has only got cocoa butter which is derived from the cocoa mass when converting it to liquor. OR................. An even better answer would be this. The milling process releases the nibs liquid. It's called chocolate liquor, (with no alchol content of course!). The machine passes the nibs through presetts of millstones and the heat generator causes the liquid to change into chocolate liquor. Then the chocolate liquor is pumped into presses. Hydraulic pressure extracts cocoa butter from the chocolate liquor, leaving the cocoa solids. Chocolate liquor and some additional cocoa butter is added back into the manufactory process in precise amounts to make different types of chocolates. But the cakes of solid cocoa are what is left after the removal of cocoa butter. When the cakes are cooled, pulverized, and milled they become cocoa powder.
Does chocolate liqoer contain any alcohol?
No. Chocolate liqoer is the liquid that comes from dried cacao nibs when they're ground. Rather than being made of alcohol, it's made up of cocoa solids and cocoa butter.
Does white chocolate have milk?
Not necessarily. White Chocolate is made by using cocoa butter but not the cocoa solids. There is milk in it, but more sugar is added to make up the bulk. Dark chocolate can be either milk chocolate (chocolate made with milk, but with cocoa solids as well as cocoa butter) or plain chcocolate (chocolate made with cocoa solids and cocoa butter but without milk). If you add white chocolate to milk chocolate then the result will be a very sweet milk chocolate. If you add white chocolate to plain chocolate, the result will be a milk chocolate
