The ancient Romans had their own version of a built-in chocolate tempering machine in their kitchens. This machine was made of bronze and had a practical design. It consisted of a bronze pot with a wooden handle and a spout. The Romans would heat the chocolate in the pot and then pour it through the spout while stirring with the handle, achieving the desired temper. This ancient kitchen innovation allowed the Romans to indulge in decadent and perfectly tempered chocolate in their desserts and sweet treats.
