How to clean a Sephra Home Chocolate Fountain
Before you invest in a Home Chocolate Fountain, you'll likely want to know: Is it hard to clean? The answer is "no". Sephra Home Chocolate Fountains are not hard to clean, with a little common sense. We want you to enjoy using your fondue fountain without dreading the clean-up. So, here are some tips and tricks to show you how easy it is to clean your Sephra fountain. The videos are a little dated, but the information is still the same. But, first of all, some of our top tips! Top tips for cleaning your home chocolate fountain
All our home chocolate fountains are stainless steel, with a plastic tier set. The auger, cylinder, tiers and crown are all dishwasher-safe. However, it's generally best to handwash them in hot, soapy water to maintain their pristine appearance and help them last longer. The parts will become more susceptible to cracking over time if they are frequently washed in the dishwasher. Try not to let the chocolate harden in the fountain before cleaning. It will be much easier if you just scoop and wipe out the molten chocolate. But please never pour chocolate down the sink! The basin should be wiped clean but never submerge in water. Don't get water inside the base unit, or it will damage the heating element. Allow the fountain to dry completely before storing it away in the box. Cleaning the Sephra Select

An apple a day used to keep the doctor away, but now the apple could be usurped by chocolate. Yes, you read that correctly! Probiotic chocolates, not only taste delicious, but will help your body retain more of the probiotic bacteria that your digestive system uses to stay balanced and healthy.
Why Choose Probiotic Chocolate?
Did you realize that your digestive system is home to over 70 percent of your immune system functions? This means that the strength and efficiency of your immune system largely relies on the health of your digestive system.
Although your body produces good bacteria naturally, many factors can negatively impact the productivity of this good bacteria. Factors that include both prescription and over the counter medication, stress, age and eating habits can all negatively impact your digestive health and thereby restrict the effectiveness of your immune system.
Barry Callebaut worked with the University of Ghent to research the effect of probiotic chocolate on the immune system in the study “Viability of Mixture of Lactobacillus Helveticus CNCM I-722 & Bifidobacterium Longum CNCM I-3470." Probiotic chocolate has been proven help your colon produce the healthy bacteria necessary to promote digestive health.
Probiotic chocolate will give your immune system the tools it needs to fight everyday contaminants that enter your body. Probiotics are capable of killing bad bacteria and viruses before they are able to travel out of your digestive system and invade the rest of your body, according to Callebaut’s and the University of Ghent’s study on probiotic chocolate.
Why Choose Chocolate With Probiotics Over Other Probiotic Supplements.
According to the study “Probiotic Bacteria; Safety, Functional and Technological Properties” by J. Biotechnol, probiotic microorganisms must be able to survive long enough in the stomach to move on to the large intestine. When probiotic chocolate enters the digestive system versus probiotics in yogurt, for instance, the rate of survival is three times higher in probiotic chocolate.
Probiotic chocolate supplements, have been clinically tested and contain the daily recommended amount of probiotics needed to maintain digestive health, which translates to over 1 billion probiotic microorganism colonies. Chocolate with probiotics are an important aspect of digestive health, but combining probiotic chocolate with a healthy lifestyle which includes eating a balanced diet and regular exercise and sleep, will help the probiotic chocolate further do its job in your digestive tract.
Start improving your digestive health with probiotic chocolate and feel the difference chocolate with probiotics makes in your life!
