How can I make chocolate covered coffee beans at home?

Can I use the coffee beans straight from the grocery store? Or do I need to do anything to them before I cover them in chocolate?

   I think it would be difficult to do at home. Chocolate covered coffee beans are made in a "panner" It looks like an old style cement mixer.

   You put the coffee beans in and they rotate in the drum. Then you ladled chocolate over them with a fan blowing to cool the chocolate. They you do another layer and so on until you reach the the thickness you want.

   You might try dipping them multiple times. But without a fan blowing the melted chocolate on the first layer may just come off.

   Also you would need a dark roast bean as medium roast are hard to bite. Most commercial chocolate covered beans use peaberry beans. Without a long explanation suffice it to say they are smaller and almost round.
