1 Lb 400 Lovibond Burnt Belgian Candi Syrup

This imported Belgian candi syrup has a lovibond rating of 400, and is made from pure Belgian beet sugar. Provides a burnt sugar flavor, which is surprisingly agreeable when used in Stouts and Belgian Dark Strongs. Also used to flavor Whisky Sour cocktails. Use 1/2 to 1 lb. per 5 gallon batch of beer. One pound dissolved in 1 gallon of water yields a starting gravity of 1.032.
