D-5 Candi Syrup (also known as Golden Belgian Candi Syrup) is a premium, light-colored Belgian-style candi syrup (Kandij Siroop) made from pure beet sugar. It provides high fermentability with minimal body increase, making it perfect for lighter, higher-gravity Belgian ales where you want subtle complexity without darkening the beer significantly.
Key Product Details:
- Color: Approximately 5 SRM (or ~5° Lovibond) – a rich, translucent 24-karat gold hue
- Gravity Contribution: ~1.032 PPG (points per pound per gallon)
- Ingredients: Beet sugar and water
