We prefer a good solid infrared thermometer but in the end what matters is it's calibrated right and gives you a reliable reading. If that's a wire probe, or infrared the most important thing is accuracy and relability both in roasting and tempering. 

Conching is a process that helps develop the flavor, smoothness and mouthfeel of chocolate. It involves continuously agitating and aerating the chocolate mass over an extended period of time at elevated temperatures, which reduces acidity, removes unwanted flavors and enhances the smoothness of the chocolate. Conching also further refines the particle size of cocoa solids.

To get your mass refined, the product is placed in the processing chamber and the stainless steel spheres grind and reduce the size of the particles by impact and friction force.

g. refiners1. It is also known, that operation is relatively noisy. An advantage is that batch sizes between 45kg and 5t are possible, which means a lot of flexibility for smaller companies.

Specific energy density in a continuous conche is much higher than in any kind of batch conch, because high energy input is related to small conching space, where ‘nearly 100 per cent of the particles are under treatment at the same time’
