Candi Sugar


Come closer...


Closer...


Closer still...


Too close!

No, wait, that's actually the most delicious thing I've ever tasted. 

I made some Belgian candi syrup to add to the Westvleteren 12 clone I will attempt to brew.  I bought some readymade syrup to compare, and what I made came out pretty close.  And it was a lot of fun, watching the sugar boil and slowly evolve as the temperature crept up.  It seems to take forever as its climbing up (a watched pot and all that) but then it's all panic as you approach the target temperature.
