Brewmaster Belgian Candi Syrup - Crystal | 1 lb

Brewmaster Belgian Candi Syrup Crystal is a highly fermentable brewing syrup for Belgian-style beer, farmhouse ales, and strong specialty beers. It helps raise original gravity while keeping the finish drier and more drinkable than an all-malt gravity boost, with flavor intensity matched to the syrup color.

The Crystal syrup is best used when you want boosting gravity and dryness with minimal color impact, especially when you want fermentability without making the beer darker or heavier. Add it late in the boil for easy sanitation and full dissolution, or add it during active fermentation for very high-gravity beers when you want to reduce kettle density and support yeast performance.

Color and D-Style Search Reference

Color: 1 SRM / 1.3°L. This is the key color reference for brewers comparing Belgian candi syrups by familiar D-style search terms. For this syrup, think: near-clear Belgian candi syrup; a good match for brewers searching clear candi syrup, pale candi syrup, or light D-style Belgian brewing sugar with almost no color pickup.

Flavor and Brewing Use

  • Flavor profile: very subtle citrus-like brightness with a mild honey-like background.
  • Recommended beer styles: Saison, Belgian Tripel, Belgian Golden Strong Ale, Belgian Blonde Ale, light farmhouse ales.
  • Common usage rate: 1 lb in a 5 gallon batch is a practical starting point; adjust to recipe gravity, color, and flavor goals.
  • Fermentation impact: contributes fermentable sugar that can increase ABV and help produce a drier Belgian-style finish.

Specifications

  • Package size: 1 lb
  • Color: 1 SRM / 1.3°L
  • Potential: 1.032 PPG
  • Approximate color contribution: about 0.15 SRM in 6 gallons when using 1 lb

How to Use Belgian Candi Syrup

For most recipes, stir the syrup into the kettle during the last 10-15 minutes of the boil, making sure it dissolves completely before chilling. For strong Belgian ales, you can also add sanitized syrup during active fermentation to reduce osmotic stress and help the yeast finish cleanly.

Storage Note

Belgian candi syrup can thicken or crystallize in cold conditions. Store at room temperature when possible. If it crystallizes, warm the sealed container gently in warm water until the syrup returns to a pourable consistency.
