What is the rough evaporation rate going from syrup to proper cream temps? I.e.

I am considering trying cream will what I assume will be my last boil this year. I am quite small scale, so far only 78 oz finished. I'll have at least 15 gal to boil this weekend, and more if the trees keep running in this warmth.

But, if I take a quart of syrup and boil to 234 to get taffy for my cream, roughly how much cream should I expect to create?

Thanks.

Cream should be close to 75% of syrup weight.

Thanks. That will help us decide if we want to "give up" some of small quantity of gold to try our hand at cream... Was a ne found favorite at our summer farmer's market.

Found about 2 cups of syrup will make 1 pound of cream
