Has anyone tried using fermented syrup to make granulated sugar?

Yes, it works. It depends on how bad it is as to how the sugar will turn out. I would not use it a stand alone product. It is good for things like maple jerky, sausage etc..

Thanks. I am thinking of blending it in with good syrup for making sugar. It appears that one of my 5 gallon barrels has a bad cap.

I had good success turning a fermented five gallon jug into sugar. The foaming was a bit trickier to control due to the alcohol boiling off, but it worked well and the flavor is fine.

cool. Ive found that if I just pour a couple gallons at a time into the intake side of my front pan, it comes out the draw off just perfect
