Can anyone tell me what the white stuff at the bottom of my "canned" syrup is?

It has settled to a thin line of thick white substance, about a qtr of the first picture... syrup tastes great

This is what happens when you mix Vermont syrup with any other states syrup. :lol::lol:

Most likely it is sugarsand (niter). How did you filter the syrup?

[whalems]

looks like sugar sand! Did you filter your syrup?

[whalems]

[vernwvu]

Just heat and filter using a proper filter. Don't wait too long or you could get a niter off-flavor (kind of a bite).

Yeah, that Vermont stuff ruins our fine PA maple syrup:lol::lol:

Vernwvu, where are you located in PA? I could point you to some local dealers if you want the correct filters. Maybe we can swap some syrup stories. PM me if you like.
