The best method for melting chocolate without using coconut oil is to use a double boiler or a microwave.
bain- marie
This refers to the method used in melting butter, chocolate, etc. Melting can be done in a saucepan directly on the burner, by using a double boiler (melting over boiling water or other liquid) or by placing in the microwave.
I suppose that that best method is melting in an inert gas atmosphere.
This depends on the weather where the chocolate is being shipped, how long the shipping takes, and how the chocolate is packaged. To prevent the chocolate from melting, it should be well insulated and preferably sent by overnight or another fast shipping method, especially in warm areas and during summer.
If you are referring to the melting method in regards to baking, it is done by melting the fat (butter, margarine, etc.) and the honey or molasses before incorporating it in the cake batter.
it is when you melt something
Usually a double boiler is used to melt chocolate - at least in home and professional kitchens. There are also tempering machines for chocolate as well - to make sure the product will stabilize at room temperature without any ugly white streaks. A stainless steel bowl set a few inches over a pot of simmering water is the best method I know.. be sure to stir often and scrape the sides to avoid scorching the chocolate. If chocolate is not handled properly it can "seize up" and be virtually unusable, as it will no longer be pliant or smooth. Also you can melt a chocolate bar in pocket.
it is something that you melt
Products that can be made using the melting method include candles, soaps, chocolates, and certain types of cosmetics like lip balms and lotions. This method involves melting ingredients together, which are then poured into molds to solidify into the desired shape.
It varies based on how you melt it and how much chocolate you are melting with what heat amount. In the microwave, it will take 2 to 3 minutes (stirring at 30 second intervals). In a double-boiler method over medium-high heat, it should take 5 to 10 minutes.
