    Default Cream with sipple candy machine

    Today I made maple cream with our sipple candy machine....by mistake! I intended to make a batch of candy but noticed the syrup was not crystallizing. I ran a few molds, but still no change. Then I remembered I had taken the syrup off at 233 degrees. That's 10 to 11 degrees too low. I was following my cream recipe! I started over and everything worked out well.
    Does anyone make cream with a leader sipple machine?

    Yelp,did it in the past,just a little bit slower than now,have a gear pump one now.Just had to be careful the cream didn't set in tray,evently learned not to cool it as much either with candy machine,still came out nice,enjoy from making a mistake.

    I make my cream in a Leader candy machine. It's slow, though. It's takes about an hour and fifteen minutes for about 20 pounds. That's from auger on to auger off. The boiling and cooling is many, many hours more. That's where I'm still trying to build the better mouse trap.

    The really nice thing is I can pour it right into the container There's time and effort saved on the scooping, I imagine. And of course making candy with the same machine.

    I'm curious what the processing time for a gear pump or paddle method is from turning it on to lidding the last container - for say 20 to 25 lbs.

    Down to the Big E, we can make and can 80 pounds in an hour. We have a CDL gear pump cream machine.
