Do you think I could use a power head to move the chocolate from the bottom of the bowl to the top tier?

Do you think a Maxijet would have enough power?

Can anyone recommend any chocolate-safe / food-safe hosing that does well under heat.

Thanks.

nope not enuf, plus you also need to keep it heated.
the ones you buy use an auger not a pump.

they dont use a pump they use a corkskrew style sealed unit to pull the choc up. I think it would destroy the powerhead throw in the fact the choc needes to be melted and therefore hot, I dont know if any powerhead would do it. Go to coscto I think they are around 60 bucks max.
